Although, which entry in /usr/share/doc/rpm-*/GROUPS might apply to a scanner firmware? Perhaps firmware should get their own Group tag different from /usr/share/doc/rpm-*/GROUPS. It would make them easy to filter out, too, which was one of Bill's topics. > But it's probably a corner case we maybe should simply ignore...
