Tom, All,
I ran into the following error regarding util-linux upgrade. I've looked in
the forum and the website, but nothing specific to it. The error is:
(72/72) checking for file conflicts

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
Is this safe to force? I ask because I don't want to kill login by forcing
if there is a preferred way to do this.... What say the experts?
(this has happened on all my boxes..)
