now I have (man ... I'm stupid) installed Java and I had no idea how I
can uninstall it so I just deleted the folder with all Java files (on
Windows that doesn't do the job because of registry file -- seems to be
the same on Linux ;-)). Now I wanted to reinstall it and RPM is saying
that it is already intalled ;-/ If I try to remove it with rpm -U
*mypackage* it tells me that it is not installed ;-)
rpm -U *mypackage*
is for upgrading *mypackage*
rpm -e mypackage
is for removing mypackage
rpm -Uvh --replacefiles --replacepkgs *mypackage*
is for reinstalling *mypackage*
