If you do a 'rpm -qa | grep kdebase' you'll find that the name of the
installed package you want to remove does not contain anything after the
'mdk'. To remove a package you'll need to use the name the package is
known by in the rpm database - not the name used by the distro managers
to keep things straight on the cd's. In this instance, your command
should probably be...
rpm -e kdebase-devel-2.1.1-13mdk
...to remove the package. Once removed, your install command will be
fine (although wildcards work for the install/freshen/uprade commands
which could make the command shorter).
Hope this is helpful.
