The FATE, like the changes the FATE relate to, are over a year old..but unfortunately it is the valid references for the justification of the change.
I'll do my best to summarise here.
Basically the FATE was the discussion involving the YAST team for dropping the last of YaST's functionality that read package Group: tags
And a discussion with our zypper maintainers that confirmed zypper never read the Group tag
The FATE was fixed, with YaST's last Group handling removed over a year ago with the following changes:
https://github.com/libyui/libyui-ncurses-pkg/pull/27 https://github.com/libyui/libyui-qt-pkg/pull/58
Therefore, the lack of openSUSE tooling using the tool makes the tag
I still don't understand what is so bad about the group tag that warrants such fervent removal? I, as a multimedia maintainer have an almost unreadable long list of request emails, was this necessary?
