Created attachment 782397 [details] fedup.log from my desktop Description of problem: I have two computers, a desktop and a laptop. Both use Xfce with lightdm. When I used fedup to go from F17 to F19, it installed gdm and a bunch of Gnome cruft without telling me. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.7.3 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use fedup on a system with F 17 and gdm not installed 2. Upgrade system 3. Check to see if gdm is installed. Actual results: You find that gdm is installed. Expected results: You find that gdm is not installed. Additional info: On my desktop, it even changed my login manager to gdm, although it didn't on my laptop. I am including two attachments: fedup.log from my desktop, and laptop-fedup.log from the laptop so that you can see that fedup installed gdm on both systems.

No, I didn't. I'd been very careful not to install that type of thing on either of my computers. Also, why did my desktop change from using lightdm to gdm (but not my laptop) if it's not a bug?

That shouldn't happen, try filing a bug against gdm
I have no idea how that stuff got in there, if it was there at all. I know very well that I'd removed gdm from both machines under F17. And, although it's not part of this report, fedup completely removed wine from both boxes and the package of printer drivers on my desktop. (I used wine on both machines before the upgrade, and my printer worked. After the "upgrade," I had to reinstall wine on both of them and my printer didn't work until I reinstalled the drivers.) And, how should I phrase the bug against gdm? "Gdm took over from lightdm when fedup installed it during an upgrade?" Fat chance; they'll just point the finger back at you.
