I usually do something like this:
rpm -qa | sort > rpms
edit the file and leave only those packages you want deleted - be really really sure.
run the following once the file is edited to your satisfaction:
for i in `cat rpms` do rpm -evv --nodeps $i done

i must have missed something. i tried executing those commands, and i did receive some output when it completed, but i don't think it uininstalled anything.
the output called an error on 'cat' apparently thinking it was a package, as well as on the filename i used to store the list of packages i want removed.
