with Add/Remove Applications supposively broken, I need to install via YUM. What are the names of the main apps/rpm's that would be installed if I had of installed Development Tools via Add/Remove Applications.? Cheers.
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"

Hi All,
thanx guys. You know, sometimes, with man, unless one actually thinks it's possible for an app etc to do something, one never thinks of looking for something. Um, did that sentence actually make sense.? lol. Cheers.
