Yes: $ rpm -qp --provides MySQL-server-standard-4.1.14-0.rhel4.i386.rpm MySQL MySQL-server config(MySQL-server-standard) = 4.1.14-0.rhel4 msqlormysql mysql mysql-server MySQL-server-standard = 4.1.14-0.rhel4 $ rpm -qp --obsoletes MySQL-server-standard-4.1.14-0.rhel4.i386.rpm MySQL mysql mysql-server So it should simply replace the existing package during update. If not, please file a bug report at http://bugs.mysql.com about it, thanks!
