[newbie] Uninstall RPMs

2001-06-28 Thread Juan Carlos 

First I install Freeciv:

rpm -i freeciv-1.11.4-1mdk.i586.rpm

Now I want to uninstall it:

rpm -e freeciv-1.11.4-1mdk.i586.rpm
error: package freeciv-1.11.4-1mdk.i586.rpm is not installed

The system says it is not intalled, but It is really installed:

rpm -qa | grep freeciv
freeciv-1.11.4-1mdk

What should I do?

  Now I want to uninstall it:
  
  rpm -e freeciv-1.11.4-1mdk.i586.rpm
  error: package freeciv-1.11.4-1mdk.i586.rpm is not installed
 
 A common mistake - the -e requires the rpm name, not its filename. What's
 stored in the RPM database is the name 'freeciv-1.11.4-1mdk' which is the
 rpm.
