Well, don't ask why I even installed Winamp :) Anyway, funny thing is (see below):
[root@localhost Winamp]# ls
Winamp-0.a1-1.i386.rpm
[root@localhost Winamp]# rpm -e Winamp-0.a1-1.i386.rpm
error: package Winamp-0.a1-1.i386.rpm is not installed
[root@localhost Winamp]# rpm -i Winamp-0.a1-1.i386.rpm
package Winamp-0.a1-1 is already installed
[root@localhost Winamp]#
Any ideas how to remove it? ;)

You would find this list is a little shorter :cool:
yum list |grep installed > /yumlist.txt

Where did you manage to find a Winamp RPM, and what on earth is inside of it?

yum list |grep installed > /yumlist.txt
Or
% yum list installed > /yumlist.txt

Sorry for late response - had to move out from old place and still on the way.
I solved the problem using 'yum erase Winamp'.
rpm - e however didn't work. Haven't had internet for few days so I didn't see your suggestions and of course couldn't try anything from your suggestions made here.
