I chose "developer" and "Expert" and the maximum size setting.  The 
installer still didn't put this RPM on.  I did some more checking 
and there are several RPMs that were not installed.

I understand not putting on support for non native languages unless 
requested.  It also makes sense to load only X servers to match 
installed Video card.  However there should be a quick and simple 
way to short-circuit the package selection and just dump every other
RPM unto the system.
