Redhat/Fedora groups are broken up a lot more than that.
From a RHEL 7.5 box:
# yum grouplist
Loaded plugins: langpacks, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager
There is no installed groups file.
Maybe run: yum groups mark convert (see man yum)
Available Environment Groups:
Minimal Install
Infrastructure Server
File and Print Server
Basic Web Server
Virtualization Host
Server with GUI
Available Groups:
Compatibility Libraries
Console Internet Tools
Development Tools
Graphical Administration Tools
Legacy UNIX Compatibility
Scientific Support
Security Tools
Smart Card Support
System Administration Tools
System Management
You can install any of these later, eg.
yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
- __d 8y agoSo of those, perhaps "Development Tools", "Scientific Support", and perhaps a couple of others reflect the OP's proposal of high-level task-centric modular functionality. But there's no reason that groups couldn't be configured for "Musician's Tools", "Artist's Tools", "Educator's Tools", etc.
- nineteen999 8y agoThe arbitrary groups would need to have a comps.xml file generated. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_use_and_edit_comps.xml_for_package_groups https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_use_and_edit_comps.xml... You can pass these to createrepo with the -g flag to create/update package groups in an YUM/DNF repository.
