this tell me ?, i just get confused, if a group is installed then all mandatory (core) + default should be installed , so why is only "72%" installed ?. And generally does percentage dont tell you much, if you don't what it refers to.

50% of 2 apples is better than "apples 50%".

maybe it better to use 10/20 (packages) than to use 50%.
