Did you try "Obsolete" or "Obsoletes"? According to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package it should be the latter, but that's not what you show in your email.

However I am running into file conflict. Old name - old-fw-1.0.0.noarch.rpm New name - new-fw-2.0.0.noarch.rpm Now when I try to install the new RPM with older RPM already installed, I see a file conflict and installation fails. (tried # rpm -Uvh & -ivh) What I have tried so far in the SPEC file is, Obsolete: old-rpm Conflicts: old-rpm Provides: old-rpm However the behavior was unchanged. Is there any way I can manage this thru the SPEC file? Please note: I don't want to ask users to use any other option like --force or --replace-files. For them the change should be seamless. Thank you in anticipation, any help is appreciated. -Regards, Sarang ____________________ _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
