network-tools has dnsmasq listed as a package

repoquery says the following on my rhel box
NetworkManager-1:1.4.0-20.el7_3.x86_64
libvirt-daemon-driver-network-0:4.5.0-36.el7_9.3.x86_64

Aha! It's actually in network-server ("Network Infrastructure Server") group. network-tools is the next one in the comps.xml file. The group name sounds like something I might have wanted for my application, but the contents are really for a lightweight server like one finds in a consumer router.

But, except for dhcp and radvd, none of the other packages in that group are installed, so I still don't see how I got dnsmasq on my system. Here's the network-server package list:

     <packagereq type="optional">dhcp</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">dnsmasq</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">freeradius</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">quagga</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">radvd</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">rsyslog-gnutls</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">rsyslog-gssapi</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">rsyslog-kafka</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">rsyslog-mysql</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">rsyslog-pgsql</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">rsyslog-relp</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">syslinux</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">syslinux-tftpboot</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">tang</packagereq>
     <packagereq type="optional">tftp-server</packagereq>
