My experience with FC6 is getting worse and worse. I had the machine
coming up in Gnome. The system offer end me some updates some of which I
chose.
Now the machine comes up In KDE. Neither the Sessions option not the
Deskswitcher Tool will allow me to choose GNOME as my desktop. What do
I do now?
Now I don't want to make this too much of a mystery, What happened was
piyut or one of the update functions removed gnome-session. But to get
it back is a big problem.
Pirut or yum wont remove packages on its own. If you try and remove any
packages through Pirut or yum, it lists the dependencies and you will
have to confirm before any package gets removed from the system. I am
curious to know why you find it unusable in this instance.

The above is simply not true. The package was removed without my confirming the removal.
Unless unclicking a line of additional software in piyut means you want
it removed which is just plain crazy. Again I will start again and we
will see what happens.
The one time I tried pirut I found that unchecking a line meant in-fact
that the package/group was to be removed. I have not used it since.
I agree with your experience. I think Rahul is wrong in this case.
Unselecting a package does indeed mean you want to uninstall it and
thats standard behavior in package managers but you need to confirm that
and it would list dependencies. I dont see what the actual complaint is.
