WBEL does have yum, however .. looking in the repositories that are
linked from the website, the "groupinstall" may not be enabled (as I do
not see a yumgroups.xml (or other xml file) in the directories that
contain the repodata and headers.

As I do not have WBEL installed, I can't say for sure whether or not the
repos support the groupinstall functions.

Can someone who has it installed try this:

yum grouplist

and let everyone know.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
