Description Rahul Sundaram 2016-06-23 04:10:41 UTC
Description of problem:

dnf grouplist hidden works but it appears undocumented.  Please add a note to the man page.

Comment 1 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2016-07-08 09:25:07 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 2 Jan Kurik 2016-07-26 05:02:38 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 25 development cycle.
Changing version to '25'.

Also present in F24.

An example of why this would be useful:

I wanted to install the virtualisation group on a headless server, but baulked when I saw all of the X/Wayland libs it wanted to pull in, so ended up manually installing the items of the group excluding virt-manager/virt-viewer.

I subsequently discovered accidentally (via Anaconda software selection screen) that there is a hidden virtualization-headless group.

This is completely undiscoverable post-installation at present since the "hidden" group option is not in dnf's man page.
