Hi,

I had similar problem with dnf, such as I didn't know that actually
dnf using the localized versions of group names, instead of the
original english names. Btw. if we have mentioned groups - would it be
possible to create my own group aliases for my set of packages? If
yes, how? ...and later on would it be possible to save this list for
later usages or reinstalling?

Thanks,

Zoltan
