Uninstalling Winamp

[samogite]

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?

try

su -
rpm -e Winamp

or

su -
rpm -e Winamp-0.a1-1.i386

or

su -
rpm -e Winamp-0.a1-1

You would find this list is a little shorter

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.
