You should install it with the --nodeps command and the remove it again
Or you could run 'rpm --rebuilddb' to see if it helps.

Subject: rpm to remove packages
Has anyone attempted to use
rpm -e <packagename>
to remove a package? I know the package is installed. When I use the
previous command I'm promptly told that the package is not installed. If
I attempt to install the package Im told that it is already installed. I
rebuilt the database ... no change. Any suggestions?
Bob
