B.2.2.2. Conflicting Files
If you attempt to install a package that contains a file which has already been installed by another package, the following is displayed:
Preparing... ################################################## file /usr/bin/foobar from install of foo-1.0-1.el6.x86_64 conflicts with file from package bar-3.1.1.el6.x86_64
To make RPM ignore this error, use the
--replacefiles option:
rpm -Uvh --replacefiles foo-1.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
