I have a wrapper around yum because I need to be sure that it always points to a remote config file that is centrally managed. Recently I've added the group_install function and tried to pass group names to my bash script wrapper around yum. This fails because many of the group names in yumgroups.xml have spaces in them. So in short, the question is, why does yum use the <name> field in the xml file, but anaconda uses <id> field? Wouldn't it be simpler to keep yum in line with anaconda and the comps.xml use of the <id> field. My bias is for this because the id field uses single keywords without spaces. Suggestions? I'd prefer not to have to go through and replace with underscores, all of the <name> field entries with spaces. (In truth I was hoping to keep it so simple that I could just symlink comps.xml to yumgroups.xml.) RMW IMPORTANT: The information contained in this email and/or its attachments is confidential.
