[newbie] Uninstall RPMs

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

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.
