== Detailed Description ==
I will remove the Group: tag from all specfiles in Fedora dist-git
which still have it, verify that the result is syntactically correct,
then commit and push the change. Since this is a relatively minor
changeI am not planning to bump Release: or add %changelog entries,
but I do that if it is deemed necessary.
I am proposing this as an official change instead of just doing it (as
with other low risk packaging cleanups) because:
* It would be by far the largest mass package change we would ever
have attempted.
* It does technically cause a visible change in the resulting package.
If queried, rpm will show the group as "Unspecified"
Can we patch rpm not
to show this useless line?
