    I don't see why this wouldn't work.

    This is why (based on one of my systems):

    # rpm -e --test python
      python is needed by PyXML-0.7-4
      python is needed by 4Suite-0.11.1-8
      python is needed by python-clap-1.0.0-3
      python = 1.5.2-38 is needed by python-devel-1.5.2-38
      python is needed by Distutils-1.0.2-2
      python is needed by python-popt-0.8.8-7.x.2
      /usr/bin/python   is needed by PyXML-0.7-4
      /usr/bin/python   is needed by 4Suite-0.11.1-8
      /usr/bin/python   is needed by gettext-0.11.1-2

    Whereas:

    # rpm -e --test python2
      ...yields zip, nothing, nada.
