AFAIK, the package category and subcategory are stored inside the rpm 
file itself, and the list of recognized categories/groups can be found 
here:

$ cat /usr/share/doc/rpm-4.3.1/GROUPS
Amusements/Games
Amusements/Graphics
Applications/Archiving
Applications/Communications
Applications/Databases
Applications/Editors
Applications/Emulators
Applications/Engineering
Applications/File
Applications/Internet
Applications/Multimedia
Applications/Productivity
Applications/Publishing
Applications/System
Applications/Text
Development/Debuggers
Development/Languages
Development/Libraries
Development/System
Development/Tools
Documentation
System Environment/Base
System Environment/Daemons
System Environment/Kernel
System Environment/Libraries
System Environment/Shells
User Interface/Desktops
User Interface/X
User Interface/X Hardware Support

  to see a package's category:

$ rpm -qi tcl
$ rpm -qi tk
