Removing RPMs
You've gotten tired of some program and want to get rid of it. Or you've just installed something you don't want. So, you want to remove an RPM package.
rpm -e does the job:
# rpm -ev tuxpaint
You don't need the entire package name (e.g., tuxpaint-9.13-1.i386.rpm), just the label.
To uninstall several programs at once, use a space-delimited list:
# rpm -ev tuxpaint SDL_ttf SDL_ttf-devel SDL_images
If you don't want to check dependencies:
# rpm -ev —nodeps tuxpaint
To test your command first, before executing it, use:
# rpm -ev —test tuxpaint SDL_ttf SDL_ttf-devel SDL_images
