Description of problem: a friend of mine is installing fc5 on a server where printing support is not needed (he doesn't have any printers). when he tried to remove cups, amongst the big list of things being removed was gdm, which naturally is required to get the default setup of X to work. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. use gui or yum to remove cups 2. dependency chain is displayed, accept them for removal 3. gdm gets removed, so X will not start (or restart) Actual results: X will not start Expected results: X should start and operate as normal except it should not be possible to print anything.
