--- Comment #2 from Naveen Kumar nkumar@redhat.com 2010-08-03 05:53:09 EDT --- IMHO this is not a bug because there is a considerable overlap with yum package. Consider this scenario:
1. I install a language XYZ support using s-c-l 2. s-c-l marks a visible flag (e.g. checkbox) in s-c-l for this language XYZ 3. Now using console I remove this language XYZ support (e.g. yum remove @XYZ-support)
Now, until unless yum decides to notify s-c-l about this change, in some way, there is no way to keep track of already installed languages.
Otherwise every time s-c-l starts, it would have to probe/read yum database to decide which language support is installed. This is a kind of overhead for s-c-l every time it starts.
Until there is an event request-notify kind of architecture (or request broker architecture as in CORBA or maybe Dbus) in place, yum will not go on notifying applications, about package changes.
What say you?

--- Comment #3 from Pravin Satpute psatpute@redhat.com 2010-08-03 06:20:46 EDT --- yes agree with you naveen
1) this is really out of the scope of the s-c-l
2) even yum also not maintaining list of installed group,
3) if there is any central place where we are keeping this info updated (i.e manual install/uninstall by user and installed group) then s-c-l can pull that information while running, but AFAIK there is no such present thing
that's why closing this as a not a bug
it will be nice if we can get such utility from yum.
please reopen if any problem
