Yum actually has features to deal with package groups like this. Do (as
root, or with sudo) `yum grouplist` to see what groups are available, and
then `yum groupinstall groupname` -- in this case:

   yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

should do what you want. Or, to answer your original question and just get
the list of packages:

   yum groupinfo "Development Tools"

.
