I think I'm good to go now. Did
# rpm -e --verbose firstboot
# rpm -e --verbose rhn-applet
warning: /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhn-applet saved
as /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhn-applet.rpmsave
# rpm -e --verbose up2date up2date-gnome
warning: /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date-uuid saved
as /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date-uuid.rpmsave
warning: /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date saved
as /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date.rpmsave
warning: /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources saved
as /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources.rpmsave
#
I'll run a final dependency check, tar/bzip2 the dir and regain 42M.
<snip sig stuff>
