Oh dear! I would have thought (hoped?) it was harder to mess up the rpm database
using gnorpm than using the command line. I didn't even think of mentioning it
in my previous post because I tend to always use the command line for
installing stuff, but had I thought of it, I would have recommended you use it.
Disappointing to know you can still mess up a sane installation with it.

Cheers,
Malcolm
