Well... I know this isn't the neatest or easiest thing to do, but this
should get you the equivalent on top of base Fedora, if you type on a
command line:

Maybe we should look intro providing a:
yum groupinstall design-suite

May I suggest "yum groupinstall design-tools" as a better alternative?
I could help with the "comps" part (e.g. actually creating the package
group) if needed, then you may just add @design-tools in the kickstart
file instead of explicitly listing all the packages
Not sure if new groups need to be approved by some committee, though

Can we please not do this and leave things as they currently are as
there are more pressing and immediate issues that have to be and should
be dealt with.
Like the ISO size which is still above the ~700MB limit!

Defining comps is parallel to creating the spin and does not affect its
size in any way. Also, last week at FUDCon we had the session about the
Design Suite (Pierros should give a detailed report) where the agreement
was 1GB is a sensible target, the CD is too small and too slow.

Yeah I'm still waiting to see that report from Pierros actually.

Hello,
Would it be overkill to just create a meta package that pulls in these
packages as dependencies?
"yum install design-suite" will then install them all?
If this is the list of packages required, I could make a design-suite
package and submit a review request too.

Thanks!

Please all be advised that this is on the drawing boards, but no final
decision has been made yet.

Just putting this out here:
The meta package doesn't have to be included in the media. It will just
make installing the design suite easier for users, over the internet
etc.

+1
'groupinstall' or 'meta package' doesn't matter.
I agree that if someone already runs Fedora and wants to jump into a
design task, its good to have _1_ command to get set, and this is
related but different to the 'design spin' task.
Cheers
Dave
