One thing that's fundamentally different with pup is that we're trying to get away from the package being (necessarily) the point of granularity. The hope is that we can actually get the update information available via the yum metadata so that we can instead provide more useful update information such as -- "New version of apache httpd daemon to fix security vulnerability foo" and then have all of the packages which are a part of that advisory grouped together rather than requiring you to know that you need all of httpd, httpd-devel and mod_ssl as a bunch. Since we don't have that metadata currently available (and never will for the development tree and probably also some other repositories), the fallback is to grouping packages by source RPM.
That would be very cool. But dependancies already tend to bring in those bunches together, don't they?
