The RPM groups are seen only in rpmdrake (and smart and Mageia App Db),
as far as I understand. And they are package-based.
.desktop files (which are for menu entries) are for the desktop
applications. So one package can have several .desktop files (for each
application it contains) or none.
They are in effect unrelated. There was however a proposal to base the
new RPM groups on the freedektop standard for menu classification, but
it seems not to be a possibility (mainly because packages <> applications).
Cheers,
