The experiment I did was to remove the entry of kudzu from the base group. I figured that maybe I should remove the corresponding kudzu rpm from RPMS directory.

On the screen (Exception Occurred), it looks like the error is related to todo.getCompsList(). in todo.py -Song On Tue, 20 Mar 2001, Taylor, ForrestX wrote: > What did the error say?
