Am I the only one who considers this do be a dejavu?

Some of you seem to be unable to understand that
a) comps.xml groups are simply junk.
b) You are projecting you personal use case onto others.

In other words, I have no use for your "padre" and Chris Weyls' Catalyst 
packages.

Your desire to add them to a general perl-devel comps.xml group is not 
to me is of _no use_, and renders a perl-devel comps.xml to be nothing 
but simple-minded bloat.

This is even more stupid.
