What happened is that for some anaconda entries I check marked and right clicked on some options (that does a select all), because it was easier then choosing entries one by one. Then I wanted to use yumex to remove the very few that I did not want. Bible studies ws a good example. Just add a few modules (bible study programs) and then do a yumex to select them for deletion. And when it starts, go take a coffee. My Linux activities are relegated to after work or weekends, so the log file, if there is one, will be sent at that time. --- On Tue, 11/25/08, Seth Vidal <skvidal@fedoraproject.org> wrote: <blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;">From: Seth Vidal <skvidal@fedoraproject.org> Subject: Re: Yum and Yumex To: "For testers of Fedora Core development releases" <fedora-test-list@redhat.com> Date: Tuesday, November 25, 2008, 9:23 AM <pre> On Tue, 25 Nov 2008, Leslie Satenstein wrote: > There is a serious problem with both of these programs when it comes to deletion. > > I inadvertently installed a few programs that should not have been, so with Yumex I selected them for deletion. > > I received the confirmation, and then yum went through the complete tree, deleting every file in the branchs.

Could you provide a yum.log file from the system and the things you were removing?
