Well its the list up to the "Installing for dependencies" that is
explicitly requested, all the below is pulled in for deps. I'm not
sure how pilgrim builds the list but I think if it uses kickstart like
the other fedora build systems do you should be able to do a specific
"-packagename" and its removed from the list.
Does pilgrim (Puritan?) use "kickstart" like files? If so, how? If
not,
why do we not create builds using what seems to be fedora's standard
build system?
