Ok, I figured this one out. I had fedora-development configured to use the
static koji repo, which doesn't have meaningful comps, thus there are no
groups in the metadata. pirut handles this situation a bit better, it only shows
groups when they are available in the repository.

After switching to the regular rawhide repo, the groups are populated now.
