possible "rpm -e" bug ?

I have an interesting problem that may be either an rpm bug, or a bug in 
my package that I made..

I'm used to the functionality of removing an rpm using the "rpm -e 
packagename".

If I try this on the package that I made, nothing happens, no files 
removed, no errors given, etc.  If I issue a rpm -vv to get verbosity, all 
rpm does is open up the rpm database and close it.  One would thing it 
would give some sort of error.  The only way I could the package to remove 
is if I did "rpm -e packagename-version-release".  I know for certain this 
isn't normal behavior, but my best guess is that this happens when doing 
subpackages as the package I made is a subpackage.  Is this assumption 
correct?

Thanks,

James
