Dear list

I am more concerned that I can not erase webmin-0-92 as it tells me that it
is not installed. When all of the config files are there and I can use
webmin.  I have install webmin before using rpm -Uvh webmin-0-92 and removed
it with the command rpm -e webmin and it worked fine.  The only difference I
see is that I installed it using rpm --install webmin-0-92 which DOES NOT
update the database as it should.

Thanks Gordon
