Works just fine here. If you find any issues with it, file bug reports in http://bugzilla.redhat.com.

Well, occasionally you do run into problems with having yum/pup removing critical packages that you need for a functional desktop, such as when I attempted to uninstall Evolution. I did not pay attention to all the other software that it wanted to remove and at the end I was left with a system that booted into console mode. The solution was simply typing 'yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment"' at the command line to recover the lost packages.

What about the graphical add/remove applications(or equivalent) on Fedora, last time I used it, I couldn't remove any program because of dependency problems.
