So long as you are going to replace it with an older version, you should be able to erase it with the --nodeps option, but you'll need a consistent environment (ie, the Rescue CD) to install it from. And you'll have to know how to install RPMs from the rescue CD into your system via the --root option of rpm. Once you have restored the bad package, you should be able to use your system again (assumes that you only broke one package). -- Kevin J.
