I use it on my local repo to allow for easy initial setups with commands
like:

    dnf install @mathstuf-system-base @mathstuf-system-tools

and so on. It also exposes the groups in Anaconda (or did; I haven't
done a from-scratch install of a day-to-day system since...F19?). Much easier
than wrangling 100 packages names and doing things piecemeal.
