Not to derail your idea, but is this necessarily anything that `yum
--enablerepo=updates-testing --exclude=kernel\* upgrade` wouldn't fulfill?
At this point my brain started muttering something about "hey, wouldn't a
`yum groupupgrade` command be awesome?" Which led me to look at the yum
man page...which fails me. It only has groupupdate. *sad panda*
Seth, would `groupupgrade` be a simple add-on? Or just pointless? Not
sure if obsoletes are important enough...
So yeah, in summary, I'm guessing `yum --enablerepo=updates-testing
groupupdate "KDE (K Desktop Environment)"` will do what you want.
