Both vim-common and vim-minimal ship a copy of the vim man page.
Ordinarily, this does not result in an RPM conflict, since the files
will be identical in both packages.

However, you seem to have different versions of vim-common and
vim-minimal, so the file is not identical, thus resulting in the
conflict.  Update vim-minimal to be the same version as vim-common,
and the problem will go away.

Those were the magic words to explain what(s) happened.

To perform my install tests, I always want to start with a virgin system;
so I always reboot a new copy of the live CD, and then do the install
of my package.  If anything is wrong, I fix it, rebuild my package, reboot'
a new Live CD, and retest, and repeat, repeat, etc.

Because its a live cd boot, I never do a 'yum update' first.
(Why bother?  its a working CD, and yum will pull in any dependencies
_my_ package needs.)

But...  my package's post-install routines do add a sudo config value
and so it 'requires' sudo, and the sudo package in turn requires (I think)
the vim-common package, and this new vim-common is/contains a
newer/current version that is incompatible with the version of the
vim-minimal package that was built into the live CD.

I'll test that hypothesis tomorrow at work by updating the live environment
first, before performing the install of _my_ package.
