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...
########################################### [100%]
file
/usr/bin/foo from install of foo-1.0-1 conflicts

To make RPM ignore this error, use the --replacefiles option:
  • rpm -ivh --replacefiles foo-1.0-1.i386.rpm
