Description benjamin.barras@epfl.ch 2016-02-15 12:35:02 UTC
Description of problem: Message error for kickstart installation

==============================================================================
You have specified that the group "workstation-product-environment" should be installed. This group does not exist. Would you like to ignore this group and continue with installation ?
==============================================================================


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 23


How reproducible: always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Prepare a kickstart file
2. add 
%packages
@Fedora Workstation
%end

or 

%packages
@workstation-product-environment
%end


Additional info: If you replace the group package with the list of package (Fedora-23-comps.xml) :

%packages
@core
@multimedia
@firefox
@base-x
@guest-desktop-agents
@fonts
@hardware-support
@printing
@workstation-product
@libreoffice
@networkmanager-submodules
wget
%end


It's works fine :(

Fedora Workstation is an environment, not a group. If you want to specify an environment in kickstart[0] it needs to be prefixed by @^. The following should work:

%packages
@^Fedora Workstation
%end

@^workstation-product-environment will also work.
