First try rpm -e nfs-utils-1.0.10-7.fc6 If this doesn't work, try rpm -e --noscripts nfs-utils-1.0.10-7.fc6 However, more interesting would be to know why nfs-utils's %postun failed. In most cases this indicates a packaging bug. Also likely are a screwed-up installation or a bug in yum.
Verified that it also occurs using smart. It's bug in the package. Need to check bugzilla to see if it has already been reported.
