Because you had said you were a programmer, I had assumed you would interpret the [google-earth-stable?] as meaning that it wasn't the actual name, and that you should substitute the name. That's why it didn't work, not because the package was gone (even though it was). Having seen the successful command in devel, the command I gave you should have been rpm --erase --nodeps --test google-earth-stable Since your problem is solved, I'm only posting this for completeness, in case someone else searches on this issue. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
