I upgraded peacemeal. The rpm came from the redhat mirror at sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch -- If an important person, out of humility, does not want to rely on [the Law, as applicable to his case], let him behave as an ascetic. However, permission was not granted to record this in a book, to rule this way for the future generations, and to be stringent of one's own accord, unless he shall bring clear proofs from the Talmud [to support his argument]. paraphrase of Rabbi Asher ben Ye'hiel, as quoted by Rabbi Yoel Sirkis, Ba'h, Yoreh De'ah 187:9, s.v.

I checked, and all the rpm script wanted was those files in /etc/alternatives. IOW, once I solved the problem of the redhat-[switch¦config]-printer, LPRng was willing to disappear into the nothingness of rpm -e.
