  1. You should not use the package file name when removing a package. You should use the package name. So, you can try:

    # rpm -e squid-2.6.STABLE18-5.endian6

    You can confirm the correct name by listing all the packages using:

    # rpm -qa | grep squid

    If there is an error when trying to install the package, you can try (add --force):

    # rpm -i --force squid-2.6.STABLE18-5.endian6.i586.rpm --nodeps
