problem uninstalling rpm packages.....
hi frnds.....i am not able to uninstall some rpm packages......as you can see, a output from terminal
Code:
[root@zombie ~]# rpm -e Scorched3D-38.1-i386.rpm |
don't type the extention, a simple
rpm -e Scorch.... should do it, so just drop the rpm off of that command and it should work. if not, try to drop the version too. |
It's coz you are doing it the wrong way, just use the name of the package excluding the version and file type e.g.
#rpm -e Scorched3D |

try: Code:
rpm -e Scorched3D The hyphen seperates the package name from the version and the other crap. When uninstalling, you only include the package name. Good luck. joe |
hi folks.....i tried it the way you guys told....but its not working.....
Code:
[root@zombie ~]# rpm -e Scorched3D |
Do,
#rpm -qa | grep -i scorched3d the name of the installed version will be printed to the screen, uninstall it by doing #rpm -e versionThatWasPrinted By the way rpm -i should also be used for new packages that are not installed on your system, rpm -U is what you should use if you have an older version of the package installed on your system. |
