Is there a way I can get rpm -U or similar to simply skip any package where the same ore a newer version is installed, but go ahead and install the ones that need upgrade or first-time installation, rather than simply exiting when the situation occurs?
What I'm looking for is in a sense a cross between '--replacepkgs' and the default behaviour, or between 'rpm -U' and 'rpm -F', depending on the way you look at it...
Just so everyone understands what I mean, assume that the comple list of rpms installed (rpm -qa output) is:
a-1-1 b-1-2 c-1-2
I want to be able to say
rpm <something> a-1-2.<arch>.rpm b-1-1.<arch>.rpm c-1-2.<arch>.rpm d-1-1.<arch>.rpm
and end up with
a-1-2 b-1-2 c-1-2 d-1-1
The command should not reinstall c-1-2, or downgrade b to version 1-1.
