Changing this is non-trivial. As Jan said we could look at something like "repo-pkgs remove-or-sync" but for groups (we'd need groups as objects first though, and my guess is that's it's much less useful than the repo-pkgs command). I wrote something on the yum.wiki today which will hopefully explain this and other questions: http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/YumGroupsOverview -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
