Reinstalling rpm with the flags '-U --force' should eliminate duplicate installed copies. Otherwise, you will need to remove rpm manually, making sure that you save a copy of the executable in order to reinstall the rpm packages. Something like cp /bin/rpm /bin/orpm rpm -e --allmatches -vv rpm rpm-python /bin/orpm rpm-4.0.2* rpm-python-4.0.2* should work. |
