hello This is an issue i am seeing with new users:
I was at a University installfest this weekend and this was the major issues for Endusers.
case A) Students are using Fedora on windows in a VM (Vbox in this case) for a class. they are required for said class to install the guest additions. they are constantly running into errors that the guest addidions will not build (there install does not have kernel-devel install. They used the F26 release so now have the release kernel and so they install sudo dnf install kernel-devel and still have issues (kernel and kernel-devel versions do not match).
Case B) third party video or wireless driver same issue no kernel-devel, no wireless no internet == fix by sneakernet
Both of these issues can be easily fixed by including kernel-devel in a group or by adding kernel-devel to all the Desktop Environment kickstarts.
To me this simple fix will help our new users and will not leave such a unfriendly feeling (and hopeful increase our contributor base down the road)
