Folks,
An installed rpm is being listed multiple (three) times, with
different
version numbers. How can I remove the older versions, but keep the
latest intact? I have tried to rebuild the rpm database, and various
erase/force commands, but no good.
In this case the postun script is failing which is causing it to not be
cleaned out of the rpmdb.
rpm -e --noscripts pkgname-ver-rel.arch
will fix it.
