I expect I'll just rpm -e the 1.3b versions and then just rpm -i the new stuff, but I'm curious. Has anyone else run into this?
rpm -Uvh --force mozilla-*.rpm
rpm -e anf rpm -i is one solution, but you will still have dependency issues. the --force option is a poor choice. Ckwech the rpm manpage and you'll see there is an option designed for this case, --oldpackage.
Worked fine form me "rpm -Uvh --oldpackage mozilla-*"
Anothe helpfull option is --replacepkgs, great for reinstalling a corrupted package, like whern you accidentally delete a *.py instead of *.pyc :)
