I am bit confused here. > The file name is _not_ the package name, so your attempt to remove it that way will not work. run "rpm -qa | grep ntfs" then use the package name returned there in the rpm -e command I believe the package name will be kernel-module-ntfs which would lead to the command "rpm -e kernel-module-ntfs". -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
that exactly what I did before $ rpm -q kernel-module-ntfs gave me package kernel-module-ntfs is not installed snow I tried $ rpm -qa | grep -i ntfs which gave me kernel-module-ntfs-2.6.17-1.2157_FC5-2.1.27-0.rr.10.5 now I tried to remove the package $ rpm -e kernel-module-ntfs gave me error: package kernel-module-ntfs is not installed I had to try $ rpm -e kernel-module-ntfs-2.6.17-1.2157_FC5-2.1.27-0.rr.10.5 to remove it why is that so? usually it should be suffifcient to provide the name like "kernel-module-ntfs" only, why whole pacakge name including version?
