not that it much matters at this point, but it's worth noting that
while install/upgrade path things take the filename of the rpm,
removal things don't take filenames, they take package names.

So, for -e you'd specify coreutils or coreutils-4.5.7-1mdk, not
coreutils-4.5.7-1mdk.i586.rpm.

Fun stuff!
