General objection: unless the package is one that's necessary to run RPM
or yum. If it is, then obviously the second command won't work, and your
system is in Trouble. (If RPM won't work, it's in Big Trouble...)
James.
Rpm works fine!
The package stays installed, yum or rpm no longer knows the package
exists. Then when you run yum install package, the files are
overwritten, except for config files where the install scripts look for
previous file versions. These type files will be either saved as
filename.rpmnew or whatever the install scripts are setup to name the
files to.
