urpme problem

Postby zeke » Jun 14th, '13, 16:16

I tried to install Adobe Reader 9.3.4 from an rpm. It sort of installed, though I can't seems to initiate the program. I wanted to try to remove and reinstall, but I get this.....

Code: Select all
[root@localhost Download]# urpmi  AdbeRdr9.3.4-1_i486linux_enu.rpm
Package AdobeReader_enu-9.3.4-1.i486 is already installed
[root@localhost Download]# urpme  AdbeRdr9.3.4-1_i486linux_enu.rpm
unknown package: AdbeRdr9.3.4-1_i486linux_enu.rpm
[root@localhost Download]#


What do I need to do to remove the package?

I need v9.3.4 because I have to use Portfolios at work and later versions for Linux do not fully support them.

Try using the package name that urpmi used:
Code: Select all
urpme AdobeReader_enu
