This RFE is already filed but I would like to see the ability to 
optionally report installed package lists to Smolt similar to what 
popcon does in Debian.

Smolt already collects the kernel version so this is just a extension of 
that. It has not been done before because Mugshot was doing something 
similar but I don't see Mugshot have a overlapping feature as a problem 
in this instance since better stats would allow us to integrate nice 
features into the package management system showing which packages are 
popular among other things.
