NAK for simply removing from the output, as most distros are still actively 
using Group. I never understood why Fedora is so compelled to get rid of it, I 
find routinely find the group info far more useful than what's slapped into 
summary/description for example, but that's just me...

Conditionally showing group only if it exists would be okay I guess. Pretty 
much all versions of rpm are supposed to handle a missing group tag where 
relevant in the code (index data) but I doubt anybody has tested it in the last 
10+ years. Also RPMTAG_GROUP is specified as a required tag in LSB. For 
whatever that is worth.
