(This was back around FC2/FC3) How can this be possible with a Rawhide installation? I freshly installed Rawhide a few monthes ago on this PC, not an update from a FC/FC2/FC3/FC4/FC5 installation. > Anyway, the way to fix it is to specify an exact version to remove.

But is the problem due to some deficiencies in current Rawhide rpm/yum or the quake2 package? In my opinion, rpm/yum should be able to totally control the database. If no rpm nor yum can solve the problem, is there a manual way to repair/purge the database, except than rpm --rebuilddb that did nothing?
