Can you tell us what command you used; it still might require following up !

I achieved the same twm window manager (ie uninstall of gnome-session 
and friends). Since I don't like evolution and pup was wanting to update 
it I did a yum remove evolution (I may have done it with pirut!). 
Following that I ran pup again, and got all updates. The result was no 
gnome/nautilus desktop available in the session selection dialog.

This seems like a problem on the part of yum or depenencies, in that I 
couldn't remove a package without removing a number of packages I really 
needed.
