This results in the following output: http://pastebin.com/LpG0MKSc
This is a little inconsistent, but it's still clear what's going on
IMO. What do you think, is this acceptable?
So pasting the output here:
---start paste---
base-devel package not found, searching for group...
:: group base-devel:
One thing I just thought of. If it is going to be separated by repo
could that line say ":: group testing/base-devel" to improve clarity?
Members (2): flex-2.5.35-4 make-3.82-2

This is actually clearer than it used to be now that it includes the
repo name in the query. From memory, it used to ask if you wanted to
install all packages from base-devel twice in situations like this.
I still wonder if it is possible to just have one query for this? I seem
to remember investigating that in the past and deciding it was beyond me
but maybe with the new group code...
