Re: File conflicts

Working around a conflict in such a way would only lead to chaos.

Yeah, I figured it might make the database confused. It seems there is a
fix in a newer version from your pointer:

Had a fix for this in the spec file already but it apparently
stopped working.

Fixed again in 0.9-10.f14 and 0.9-11.f15.
================================================

Which kind of brings up another question. When I use the graphical
Add/Remove Software it only shows 0.9-9.fc14 as an option.

If there is a 0.9-10.fc14 available how do I get it to show up on the
list ?

I feel kind of bad having to ask this, but this whole RPM issue has made
things so easy, and it just always seems to work, I haven't had to
really take time to figure out how it works in order to deal with the
exceptions. It's great quite frankly.

I tried to use yum to install openchange-devel and that package seems to

openchange-devel-0.9-9.fc14.x86_64 conflicts with file from package
man-pages-3.25-1.fc14.noarch

What is the right way to get around this conflict. I really probably
don't need the man page version from openchange-devel, I'd rather keep
the standard one.

Is there some way to tell yum to not intall the conflicting file, but
install all the others ?

Better would be to resolve the conflict by either moving one of the
files or by giving it an own namespace, such as openchange_index.
