After a fedup to version 19 I no longer can add or remove groups. If I try to remove a desktop or even do a group list I get this message:
yum group list Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit There is no installed groups file. Available environment groups: GNOME Desktop KDE Plasma Workspaces Xfce Desktop LXDE Desktop Cinnamon Desktop MATE Desktop .......
I do have the Cinnamon Desktop installed from 18 and want to remove it which shows:
yum group remove "Cinnamon Desktop" Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit There is no installed groups file. No environment named Cinnamon Desktop exists No group named Cinnamon Desktop exists No packages to remove from groups
I have google'd around a little but did not find anything that helped.
I think, you are facing the same issue as described in this threat: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/users/2013-July/436944.html

Looks like adding group_command=compat to /etc/yum.conf allows the group stuff to work again. I would guess that it does not fix the problem.
Seems to describe a similar problem as I filed in BZ 954088.
Kind regards
