RPM Package Group "Graphics" causing yumex/pup to error out.

[Jeremy Nix]

Here is the error I am receiving:

Once I downloaded the comps.xml file myself, and walked through the 
code, I found the offending entries in the comps.xml listed below:
  <group>
    <id>graphics</id>
    <name>Graphics</name>
    <description>This group includes packages to help you manipulate and 
scan images.</description>
    <default>true</default>
    <uservisible>true</uservisible>
    <packagelist>
      <packagereq type="optional">agave</packagereq>
      <packagereq type="optional">asymptote</packagereq>
      <packagereq type="optional">blender</packagereq>
      <packagereq type="optional">comix</packagereq>
      <packagereq type="optional">digikam</packagereq>
      <packagereq type="optinoal">digikamimageplugins</packagereq> <!-- 
Offending Line -->

I walked through the stacktrace and found that "optinoal" is not a 
supported type.  It should be "optional".  I'm not sure who to send this 
bug to, so I figured I'd post it out here. 

Setup:
kernel-2.6.19-i686
yum-3.0.3-noarch
yumex-1.9.2-noarch
yum-metadata-parser-1.0.3-i386
