On my previous post, I forgot to include the following command to uninstall glade interface designer's files. Here is a description of what I would do to uninstall rpm files.

I uninstalled it because I thought libglade was apart of glade interface and that it had the word "Glade" in it, yea sounds stupid that's why I uninstalled it.

When I saw those 100 dependency files, I knew that I couldn't remove them and so I forced that file to be uninstalled and leaving out the dependency files and I did it with the following command:

The --nodeps (and to a lesser extent --force) options in rpm are for
experts that really know what they're doing. Using them without really
knowing what you're doing often results in a borked system.

When rpm tells you there are about 100 dependencies when you try to
uninstall something, the list of 100 things it produces is a list of 100
things that are very likely not going to work any more if you uninstall
it using --nodeps.

So please don't use --nodeps again.

There will be a file called libglade2-2.5.1-2.i386.rpm on your install
media in the Fedora/RPMS directory (not sure which CD if you're using
CDs). Find that file. Let's say its full pathname is:

/media/cdrom/Fedora/RPMS/libglade2-2.5.1-2.i386.rpm

In a terminal, as root, type:

# rpm -Uvh /media/cdrom/Fedora/RPMS/libglade2-2.5.1-2.i386.rpm

(if you're on a 64-bit version of FC4, substitute x86_64 for i386)
