I realized I made an error in this command. It should be
yum groupinstall development-tools development-libs
As a slight tangent, you can use install with groups, you just need to prefix them with the @ symbol, e.g.:
yum install @development-group @development-libs(Or for the lazy bash types: yum install @development-{group,lib} ;)
Turns out yum installs the latest version of things it is asked to install -- and this can be an issue when installing kernel-headers and kernel-devel for the purpose of building kernel modules. Even if yum install of kernel stuff is done on the machine on which the to-be-built kernel module will be deployed, the kernel stuff installed by yum might not match (might be newer than) the kernel of the calling machine!
