There was an incorrect desktop-file-install call in a package I maintain, i.e.

How can I make the update work smoothly? I tried explicitly specifying Conflicts: xflr5 < 5.09.05-5, but it
did not
help.
xflr5-6.09.05-4.fc21.x86_64
xflr5-6.09.05-5.fc21.x86_64
why in the world do you specify any conflicts for a ordinary update?
I didn't do it in the package in the repos. It was just something I tried locally when trying to find a way to make
the update work, since I ran out of ideas how to solve it otherwise
please describe the *real* problem without hacks
xflr5-6.09.05-4.fc21.x86_64 had an incorrect desktop-file-install call in the spec file, namely
desktop-file-install --dir=%{buildroot}%{_datadir}/applications/%{name}.desktop %{SOURCE1}
which caused the desktop file to get installed to /usr/share/applications/xflr5.desktop/xflr5.desktop
In xflr5-6.09.05-5.fc21.x86_64, I fixed the desktop-file-install call to
desktop-file-install --dir=%{buildroot}%{_datadir}/applications/ %{SOURCE1}
so that the desktop file is correctly installed to
/usr/share/applications/xflr5.desktop
Upgrading from xflr5-6.09.05-4.fc21.x86_64 to xflr5-6.09.05-5.fc21.x86_64 however fails with
Transaction check error:
file /usr/share/applications/xflr5.desktop from install of xflr5-6.09.05-5.fc21.x86_64 conflicts with file from
package xflr5-6.09.05-4.fc21.x86_64
can you please provide both SPEC files
i still do not get why there can be any conflict
this is not a common behavior in changed %files section for whatever reason
no longer listed files are supposed to be removed without any noise
-4 spec file:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/xflr5.git/tree/xflr5.spec?id=510af4da0c081c0b70ec03a35d8878053e5e87d0
-5 spec file: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/xflr5.git/tree/xflr5.spec
I guess this could be an rpm bug, specifically when a directory is
replaced with a file with the same name when the package is upgraded?
