Rebuild packages, spec fixups

Jerry Vonau has done a lot of the exploratory work, so mostly done I think. Thanks! Still, might hit issues and cry for help...

Switch from metapackage to 'groups'

RFH: The repos I build have no 'groups' defined, and we need to control livecdcreator/pungi and anaconda so that only the group (and its deps) is included.

Polish on the Anaconda / Installer

• With current buildsys tools maybe we can now replace fedora-logos properly.
• Current Anaconda seems to install from a bootable USB

Work

• Administration, management
  • Simplify networking -- drop Active Antennas definitely
  • Allow to run single-NIC, in a pre-existing network
  • etckeeper to track configs
    • needs better ignores
    • got to do etckeeper init and initial commit
  • puppet
  • Simplify, cleanup xs-config -- use alternative init scripts and configs (as we are doing with'pgsql-xs' vs 'postgresql').
  • Easy to enable:
    • Filtering: OpenDNS, upstream content proxy
    • DHCP leases only for XO MACs and whitelisted addresses
• wwwwoffle!
• apache rsync proxy
• activity-server support for dotted activities
• cannot register if your name includes a ":" -- or any invalid username char
• reporting tool (what can we use?)
• log-and-config collector, similar to olpc-logs (and using etckeeper as well?)
• better oats + xs-rsync integration and support
  • and lzma support
• Good spec files so ARM rebuild possible / easy
