Why must?

Ouch. rpm itself is installed twice, once for i586 and once for x86_64.
That's what I suspected...

Now you have basically two choices:
1. Use a program or script that can unpack RPMs without using rpm.
2. Use the rescue system.

I guess that it's because your /bin/rpm is still i586 and you've lost
your i586 shared libraries while doing rpm -e rpm.i586.
Hmm, this should work then:

Did you log out and log in between the transaction where rpm.i586 was
