Hi all,

I've written a new yum plugin: grouppackagetypes

Tim asked me to post details here for review with a view to including in 
yum-utils.

Summary:

A plugin for yum to specify which package types within a package group 
should be installed when using yum groupinstall.

Sample Usage:

# install just the mandatory packages from the "Base" group:
yum groupinstall --group-package-types=mandatory base
