reinstalling GNOME from the cd's

[D_U]

Is there a way to reinstall gnome from the CD's?
Even when some of the gnome packages have been upgraded?
Any way to do yum groupinstall gnome
but from the CD's?

i have never done this, but i will share my thoughts: the easiest way to do that, i believe, would to use the Add/Remove applications GUI interface (if you cant get into gnome you might could do it from kde). the reason i would use the gui interface is becuase there are a ton of dependencies for gnome and doing that manually from the command line, i would think, would be a whole new experience in frustration.

My attempt to run it:

[D_U@catv-50631f2b ~]$ system-install-packages
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/system-config-packages/SinglePackageWindow.py", line 22, in ?
import gtk.glade
ImportError: /usr/lib/libglade-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: atk_relation_set_add_relation_by_type

also:

[D_U@catv-50631f2b ~]$ system-config-packages
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/system-config-packages/MainWindow.py", line 14, in ?
import gtk.glade

The RPMS are on the CDs in /mnt/cdrom/Fedora/RPMS

you can attempt to install from rpms there

It might be best to do rpm -F [I think], package.

You might need to boot into KDE or Xwindows to uninstall GNOME, as you cannot remove it while running
