Problems with Broken RPM package

[C.F. Scheidecker Antunes]

Hello all,

I have been updating this system from FC2 to FC3 and now to FC4.
I've noticed that I have 2 versions of hal installed : 
hal-0.4.6-1.FC3.i386  and hal-0.5.2-2.i386.
Clearly a no-good situation. I get stuck on upgrading my machine because 
of that.

I've tried to remove it with both rpm and yum and got errors.

I've tried to rebuild the rpm database as well, but the problem still 
the same.
How can I fix it?

Thanks,
C.F.

Here's what happens when I run rpm and yum:

rpm -e hal-0.4.6-1.FC3.i386
error: %postun(hal-0.4.6-1.FC3.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 1

for yum :
