True,
but if you have a directory full of RPMS, some that may be installed on
your system, and some that aren't, Uvh will install everything.

Doing "rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs *.rpm" is very close to what I'm looking
for in terms of behavior, except it actually reinstalls rpms that are in
the *.rpm list that are already present on the system. I just want it to
skip rpms that don't need updating (ala Freshen) while still being
smart enough to install new stuff that's not on disk yet.
I'm must be missing something obvious here... leave off the
--replacepkgs, and they won't be reinstalled, i.e.
rpm -Uvh *.rpm
will update where necessary, and install where necessary.
Cheers,
Phil
