Today, I was doing some troubleshooting and I found two versions of slony1-92 installed on the system. I tried to uninstall the older version but I get an error. Any ideas what caused this error, or how to resolve it? I rebuilt the rpm database, also ran "yum clean all". The problem is not fixed.

This is something that I fixed in 2.1.3:

* Tue Feb 19 2013 Devrim Gunduz <devrim at gunduz.org> 2.1.3-1
- Update to 2.1.3
- Fix init script names in %%postun and %%preun.

rpm -e --noscripts slony1-91-2.1.2 

will do the trick. It will not appear in other updates.
