Hello,
I am trying to remove a package through yum and even though it says the
operation is successful when I then try to list the installed packages
it says the package is still installed.
At the same time I know the package is not there as the files are missing.
What do you think is the problem?
what is the name of the package you try to remove w/ yum, and
what is the command line you are using?
