Requiring kickstart abilities to achieve that is a bit over the top,
don't you think? I don't think we want to put the hurdles much higher
than the "yum --exclude=\*-debuginfo\* install \*" if we want people to
test Fedora Rawhide (and we would effectively do it if we e.g.
documented the kickstart but not the yum way).
