You are seeing gnome-shell launched as part of the gnome-session package, which are probably both installed. 'dnf remove @gnome-desktop' doesn't remove gnome-session or gnome-shell packages. Group remove only removes packages that don't already belong to another dnf group or weren't installed explicitly by the user (the latter of which is probably happened in anaconda). -- Jonathan Billings <billi...@negate.org> _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
