the rpm command gets called by zypper is something as follow:

   rpm --root / --dbpath /var/lib/rpm -e --allmatches --nodeps -- task-poky-sdk-1.0-r5.armv5te

and rpm reports that "error: package task-poky-sdk-1.0-r5.armv5te" is not installed

while using simply the package name works

   rpm -e task-poky-sdk

While "rpm -qa" shows full name, including version, revision and arch.

Should zypper invokes rpm using simply the package name? or should "rpm -e" accepts full package names?
