What is the point there? That's not true. If it's in the xml file, the tools see it. The tool then decides whether to show it to the user. Just because anaconda decides not to use the information based on the hidden-property doesn't prevent yumex, apt, smart, or another package manager from using the classification to show the packages in a category view. If we are making the RPM Group field optional in the spec file, then we have to allow equivalent information to be stored and retrieved from somewhere. In the Packaging Meeting, this somewhere was comps. If comps is not the place for it then we have a bit of a problem. -Toshio
