I'm trying to upgrade an FC4 box (x86_64) to FC5T3, but I'm getting an

Basically, the message is something like "We should really show you the
debug info here, but we'll just fail instead." On VT3 I can see that
there are file conflicts between packages from FC4 and FC5T3, namely
for xpdf, xorg-x11-devel, python-devel, vim-common and e2fsprogs. Not
sure if those are harmless or if they are actually causing the install
to stop.
Yes, the conflicts will currently cause things to stop. Could you file
the list so that we can add them to the handler for these.

this behavier is *wrong*
failing because a conflict on update without even tell the user about
them isn't the right thing to do.
what if sb has third party packages that conflicts with the new ones?
the user should be asked if he/she wants to remove this package and
proceed (can install them after the upgrade is done) or abort the
install to solve the problem.
