+                <para>
+                    Specifies a list of distro-specific packages to add to all images.
+                    This variable takes affect through 
+                    <filename>packagegroup-base</filename> so the 
+                    variable only really applies to the more full-featured 
+                    images that include <filename>packagegroup-base</filename>.
+                    You can use this variable to keep distro policy out of 
+                    generic images.
+                    As with all other distro variables, you set this variable
+                    in the distro <filename>.conf</filename> file.
