That looks more like a yum bug,

what happens if you replace "yum remove" with "rpm --test -e"? You
will get some dependencies that need to be removed and you can add
them to the mix, but will you really get to having to remove
gnome-session? If yes, then there is a severe bug somewhere, and we
need to fix it. And doing the manual rpm --test -e probing will also
get us the broken dependency. But my bet is still on a yum hickup ATM.
