I think not.
It was a tool that only happered before the final release of Fedora Core 1.
In the final FC! release, it wasn't htere anymore.
It shows the package list complety, and not by groups, like the actual
system-config-packages does.
In the time it had the option to remove pakages, the add was there but not
possible to select i think.
