How so?

It should not be difficult to read the list of package groups
(components) from the anaconda-ks.cfg file.  Just parse for the
"%packages" section and read the lines that follow beginning with "@ "
and stop looping your parser when you reach either the end of the file
or another section (like "%post").  How much easier do you want it to
be?
