Yeah, I just noticed tonight that sendmail is in both @Core and @Base
(as well as @Mail Server). Is there a particular reason it is in both?
Right now, it (or whatever the default provider of /usr/sbin/sendmail)
should be in @Core, because cronie is mandatory and requires
/usr/sbin/sendmail (until the rawhide version of cronie, which will log
to syslog if there's no /usr/sbin/sendmail).
Why is sendmail also in @Base?

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
