My update to 5.2 fails on one machine because of this error:

Transaction Check Error: file /etc/init.d from install of chkconfig-1.3.30.1-2 conflicts with file from package AcronisAgentLinux-9.5.8076-1 file /etc/init.d from install of chkconfig-1.3.30.1-2 conflicts with file from package TrueImageAgent-9.5.8076-1

Obviously, both packages created (completely unnecessarily) the /etc/init.d symlink. I'm going to report this to them, but what's the best course of action to continue now? There doesn't seem to be a "force" option for yum? Install that single file via rpm with force?

rpm -Uvh --force <pkg_name>
