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.
