But Johnny's link to the comps.xml has exactly what I want, so that saves me a step. Thanks for the suggestion nonetheless, Bart. johnn ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

It actually has the "core" group and the "base" group separate! Thanks Johnny. johnn ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] packages in "base" that are not in "nobase"
Is there a way to list the packages that are in a "base" install, but that are not in a "nobase" (core) install? I did a nobase install, then ran "yum groupinstall Base", but this just lists everything in base, including the core packages. Mainly, I'm just looking to audit the packages, and add only necessary ones back to a nobase install. So far, I've come up with sendmail, man, logwatch, logrotate, vixie-cron. johnn ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
