Confirm correct behaviour in yum update?

Hi all

Following discussion about journald and rsyslog I recently removed rsyslog
(system is f19 upgraded to f20 via fedup).

There is nothing listed on my system as having a dependency on rsyslog.

Doing yum update results in the system wanting to install (yes install
explicitly) rsyslog as a new leaf node.

With debug set to 5 it l looks like it is picking it for install out of a
'standard' group but plenty of other packages in that group (such as ed)
are skipped...

My understanding was that if you did a yum remove rsyslog it should be fine
and array gone unless a dependency pulled it in.

What am I missing or is this a bug?

Cheers

James
