Hi

I have installed an application on Fedora2 using rpm -ivh. The installation
did not conclude 100% successfully as it came up with a script error but the
application ran real well until I change my password, mistake. I now need to
remove it which seem to be a problem using rpm -e. What is the procedure for
removing a package manually.

i.e. Delete disk files
remove package entries from rpm database (where)
any other steps


Many thanks

Mike
