You can write pre-install script that check number of installed package instances ($1, iirc) and if
package already installed, then exit with error message and non-zero status.
But why do you want to do such a thing?

Subject: building a package that can not be upgraded
Is there an easy way to create a package that throws an error when trying to upgrade? Aka rpm -i should work, rpm -F/-U should not
Thanks
Michael
