The only (somewhat minor) problem I have is that you can only specify a single type. The two obvious ways to fix this are: 1. Allow multiple options and split on comma/space like most of the options that take lists. 2. Just assume that default implies mandatory and optional implies the other two. ...the later might be somewhat "safer" but has less power. > More details and code here: > > http://projects.robinbowes.com/trac/yum-grouppackagetypes You might also want to include an option to enable/disable group conditional packages. -- James Antill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Red Hat
