Hi Gerry,
When you send emails to a support list and you mention errors, please
provide a copy of the errors for all to peruse.  You didn't mention
which RPMs you were trying to remove nor did you provide a cut-n-paste
of the error message.

Also, if you plan to investigate further, please do so before sending
your email.  You should only contact this list when you've run out of
other options.  I received 4 emails from you in a period of 3 hours on
the same subject, the last one at 9:35pm.  Maybe you should have sent
one email at 9:35 with your findings instead of starting a
reply-to-myself thread at 6:46pm.  :-)
