I got the problem to erase program from RH9.After I installed RPM package on RH9.
Example :
# rpm -ivh blaaa.rpm

I used this command below here to erase the RPM package :
# rpm -e blaaa.rpm

The messaage came out:
blaaa.rpm is not installed
I never get this problem in RH 7.3.

I also can't see the program (RPM package) from add/remove program.

And I would like to install xine (VCD/DVD player) on RH9.
Where could I find the RPM package ?
I already tried to download RPM package from xine website.
But I got the problem with library.

Any idea about this problem ?
Thanks for your helping......:)


Say YES to Open Source Say NO to MS$$$$$$$$$$$$$$












 
I already tried this package.But I still got the problem.
I don't know which library match with xine-0.9.21-fr1.i386.rpm.During the installation came out with libxinexxx conflict.And I ran the xine.
The error message : Segmentation Fault.
Before I got the problem to erase the RPM package.
So I did # rpm -Uvh libxinexxx.rpm
Please give me the detail.
Which file should I download it ?
And Xine can work fine on RH9.
Any suggestion.....:)

 
Ok your first problem is you install with rpm -Uvh <programame>.rpm but erase with rpm -e <programname>

So do a rpm -qa | grep <programname> then once you know the correct name erase it with the -e flag and &quot;just&quot; the name (no .rpm)

E.g
#>rpm -qa | grep apa <CR>
apache-openssl-1.3.6-C13
apache-conf-pacifica-14
apache-1.3.6-C13
apache-icons-pacifica-1
apache-devel-1.3.6-C13
#>

#>rpm -e apache-icons-pacifica-1 <CR>
#>

Good Luck.

I've heard raves about apt-get for debian and found a package that had been ported for .rpm's. apt-get is supposed to deterimine depends for you and download them. I'm actually running it on my Linux box RH 8.0 right now and just so happen to be pulling down XINE, imagine that ;-)

If all goes well I'll post back.

Which one of me are you talking to?
My very own LUG!
 
All the rpm package from RH9 can be erase it from add/remove program.
I downloaded some rpm package like xine,etc.
And I already installed it successfully.
Because I got warning about md5sum during installation.
any suggestion ?


Hi awreneau

I don't need to install xine (RH9) again.
Because I got videolan client and freevo.
Both programs can work fine with RH9.







 
If you are not sure the package is installed do the following

rpm -qa | less you will than have a list of all packages installed.

As far as looking for the other package.. I am not sure.
good luck.
 
I already tried many rpm package (exclude rpm package from RH9), but I got same problem.
The rpm package can work well.But I could not erase it.
I still find out the problem.
Is it a bug from RH9 ?
Fyi, I bought original cd from Redhat.
