Apparently I did, since the file anaconda-ks.cfg contains the lines:
        
        %packages
        @office
        @...
        @virtualization
        @...

I feel intensely embarrassed, but I suspect that this kind of error is
easy to make and (as we have seen) it is hard to fix.  Maybe there
should be some kind of warning in the installation procedure.
