Thank you, 'gnome-desktop' works fine, however if user types "# yum
groupremove 'gnome-desktop'" then he will get the same result as before.

But when he types '# yum remove @gnome-desktop', it will be removed
properly.

It's strange behavior for me, because you can find out that should be
the alternative for "group commands" in Fedora documentation [1].
