Use rpm to remove an installed package

A package can be removed from the system by using the rpm -e or rpm --erase command.

For example, the following command would remove a package named some_package

$ rpm -e some_package

To print out additional debug information, use the -vv flag

$ rpm -evv some_package

To do a dry run, pass along the -test flag

$ rpm -evv -test some_package
