I would like to upgrade in place an rpm supplied by the distribution

I just build it so that version string pattern matches what is in the
distribution but it seems to be not possible. What else should I do
to the spec file so that I can do this?
yum remove and yum install is the not the route I would like to go at
this point because it would remove mess up the dependencies.

After disabling the priority plugin or raising the priority of your own
repository yum should happily update the package.
