I used the select all per group today during an install. All the 
packages that I normally use were there after installing. The process 
did not take long since I was able to choose all optional packages easily.

I also did a yum upgrade on another system and it croaked because it had 
all of the openoffice language packages on it. I believe if the Turkish 
package was correct, it would have upgraded initially. I never use the 
language packages but they should not cause a failure either.
I know the issue was discussed too much already.

I like the new installer over an everything install but this feature 
elimination does not keep the heat on for the GFS kernel modules and the 
language specific packager/developers to keep their packages at least 
installable.
