I'm not sure what you mean here. What are "group conditional packages" ?

 See man yum.conf for:

enable_group_conditionals

Ah, OK.

Extending that to its logical conclusion, it sounds like there's a need for a yum-options plugin that surfaces all the configuration directives available in yum.conf. And I think I'll give that a miss for now!

My latest code is here:

It now works with multiple, comma-separated values, e.g.:

yum groupinstall --group-package-types=mandatory,optional ruby

R.
