You can at least stop it running:

Thanks!
On your advice I did that. Also it's friend nifd.
By the way, I tried:
rpm -e --nodeps howl howl-libs
and nothing in Gnome worked!
Which just goes to show, --nodeps and --force are measures of last
resort when it comes to RPM options. Dependencies are usually there for
a reason...
Cheers, Paul.
The only time I have ever used --nodeps and --force was to remove what I
percieved as a "borked" package and then re-install it shortly afterwards...
I know there are probably many more reasons, but thought I'd list one :)
