It may be more clear by example. As there are different builds of the same 
NEVR, there can be situation that two (or more) different builds can be 
simultaneously installed in the system. It's not a normal situation, but quite 
real when for some reason system upgrade breaks. And there are two different 
foo-1.0-1 with disttag1 and disttag2. `rpm` should be able to handle this and 
there should be a way to tell what build we what to erase. For example:

    rpm -e foo-1.0-1/disttag1
or this way in depend what format rpm will use:

    rpm -e foo@disttag1-1.0-1

PR #594 uses first variant.
