Try using this command instead:

rpm -e --nodeps (the RPM you want to remove)

I've been trying to install a later version of MySQL (4.0.16). The Redhat
default install is 3.x, and using rpm -e fails to remove the default
packages due to 'dependencies'. How can I safely and successfully uninstall
the default mysql packages (server and client) so I can start fresh?

Thanks,
Eve
