rpm error uninstalling trickle

I was trying to uninstall software, and rpm gave me this error.

frank:/home/bruno # rpm -e trickle
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.65877: line 1: /usr/share/rpm-helper/del-service: No such file or directory
error: %preun(trickle-1.06-1mdk) scriptlet failed, exit status 127

Can someone help me? Rpm still reports trickle as installed.

are you running the command as root?

Yes.
Actually, either rpm, yast2 and apt-get will give me similar errors trying to uninstall this thing.
