what does rpm -qa|grep webmin show?

I have never used the --install long option but it sounds like you are saying
it installed the files but did not update the database.  I don't have time to
dig into the man page but that is horrible behavior if that is what it did.  I
would have assumed that --install was equiv. to -i

BTW I use rpm -ivh package.rpm all the time with no problems.  When I have hit
the issues you are describing it is because I have incorrectly spelled
something or tried to ask rpm to query the rm file name rather thatn the
package name.
