Given that I wrote the exception, I can rather confidently say that it
doesn't say that.

It lists both rpm and yum's inability to do the grouping ops, but
nowhere does it require that we solve it with rpm. We can solve this,
rather trivially, with yum.

~spot, who isn't sure why he's arguing with you, as he know no good will
come from it.
