Ah, okay. That might just be a bug we fixed then - it could also have
been a flaky rawhide mirror. Try 0.9.2 from koji and see if it makes it
work more properly.

Also go into /var/cache/yum/anaconda-upgrade/ if see a comps.xml or a
groups.xml.gz or anything like that, remove it, just in case it is bogus
or broken in some way.
