Thanks for the answers, but I have tried those, and they still don't have any 
effect on Software Manager.  Things work just fine at the command line, just 
not in Software Manager.  If I try to use 

rpm -e <packagename>

from the command line, it just tells me that the package is not installed on 
this system.  Software Manager is being very peculiar.  Anyone else come 
across this sort of problem?
