How do you uninstall/remove an rpm package? Plz Help!
 
I installed apt, but then it broke (I'm getting segmentation faults) so I want to reinstall a new rpm of apt. But I dont know how to uninstall the one that is currently on my system. I'm really new to linux, so please forgive my ignorance. Thanks for your time.

rpm -e <name of package>

You give it the name of the package, without the .rpm extension.
