Which brings up the obvious question: Why are rpms included on the
distribution media which *aren't* installed if you right click everything
and select all optional packages? What is the purpose of totally invisible
rpms like that? With people talking about how much space the isos need,
why clutter them up with rpms that can only be installed if you burrow
down to the rpm directory and manually install them?
