Accidently installed wrong rpm, now I can't get rid of it!

I was trying to install an FC1 2.4 kernel rpm, but I accidently 
installed the kernel-utils package instead because I wasn't paying 
attention to the filename. Now when I try to rpm -e it, it has failed 
dependencies:

=====
[root at andrew andrew]# rpm -e kernel-utils-2.4
error: Failed dependencies:
        kernel-utils is needed by (installed) lm_sensors-2.8.7-0_32.rhfc2.at
=====

Now lm_sensors was already installed, so I don't see how it needs the 
2.4 kernel utils package now? How do I get rid of it without getting rid 
of lm_sensors?
