Create a yumgroups.xml file in your repository (google will show you
many examples) and then do "yum groupinstall 'Server de Alan'", etc.
You can then add new rpms to the group and groupupdate will snag them
automatically.  There are a couple of tools out there for
automatically generating a yumgroups.xml file from rpms listed on the
command line.
