No, no.  It's quite gone.  I haven't cried in quite a number of years,
but this just might do it.  What is going to be the most efficient way
to "get everything back?"  I assume gnome is currently installing (I
hope...).  But how about everything else that got removed.  By leaving
off the -restart flag by accident this time around, why did all the
packages get removed?
