I've been wondering -- is there any reason we don't get rpmbuild to
strip the group out of the package metadata when it generates a binary
RPM?
Also, right now, rpmdev-newspec still creates a Group field, and even
prepopulates it for certain templates (e.g. libraries)
it'll be maintained for compat reasons by it is no longer required to
build a package as of the new rpm in rawhide, iirc.
