It is an often experience that I try to remove a package(ex: bluez, kernel, gnome-bluetooth) and yum(8) prompts me to remove nearly 200-300MB worth of critical packages, which has no connection(ex. kernel => Xchat  OR bluez => gedit  etc.) with the package I want to remove. Recently I was told to set remove_leaf_only=1 in yum.conf, which should help remove only the leaf node packages and nothing else. So I set it. 

The connection may not be obvious to you, but it's there. You shouldn't ever remove kernel. You may want to remove a specific kernel (that you are't currently running), but then you need to include a version number.
