rpm -e --noscripts realplay
but not the earlier commands. --noscripts is neccessary, else it gave unexpected errors.

Yeah, that is precisely what I got. I installed RealPlayer11GOLD.rpm and the
output in the terminal was as follows:
[root@localhost Downloads]# rpm -Uvh
/var/cache/yum/x86_64/13/fedora/packages/*.rpm RealPlayer11GOLD.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]

3:realplay ########################################### [100%]
postinst called with unknown argument `1'
warning: %post(realplay-11.0.2.1744-1.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
I then ran "rpm -qa | grep -i realplay" I got the following:
realplay-11.0.2.1744-1.i386
which lines up with the output from RPM. So then I ran "rpm -e realplay"
The result was as follows:
[root@localhost Downloads]# rpm -e realplay
prerm called with unknown argument `0'
error: %preun(realplay-11.0.2.1744-1.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
So, I ran "rpm -e --noscripts realplay" and now realplay is off my system :)

The queation is :Is the name of the rpm RealPlayer11GOLD?
Maybe, first one needs to run:rpm -q :grep realplayer
or some othere possible rpm name for realplayer.
Then you can try the : rpm -e ...
Command.

On my box:
rpm -qa '*RealPlayer*'
RealPlayer-11.0.0.4028-20080225.i586

Never mind....
It should be
rpm -e realplay
I hate it when some folks name the rpm file different than the package
name.....
