The non-UI way was kickstart.  But you can't deselect (-) mandatory
packages in a group.  @core is primarily made up of mandatory
packages.

Huh. I could swear I've done that before and it worked. In any case, it is
_certainly_ working with appliance-creator right now. :)

appliance-creator may not force @core. The force of @core is an anaconda thing.


This actually opens up another axis, here, so we could have one standard for
mandatory packages (kernel+init, or up-to-yum+net) and a second level for
default (up-to-yum+net, +ssh,cron,etc). Even without a UI exposed, the
distinction between mandatory and deselectable is huge for kickstart, which
I think is common for _most_ of our use cases.

Yeah, that's a thing that probably could be done. Bug again I'd like some input from people who have made the switch to these packages being mandatory.
