I updated my i386 systems without any problems, but when I tried to
update one of my x86_64 systems, I got an error from yum.

Transaction Check Error:   file /usr/include/libdevmapper.h from
install of device-mapper-1.02.02-3.0.RHEL4 conflicts with file from
package device-mapper-1.01.04-1.0.RHEL4

So it can't install the newer package because it conflicts with the
older package???  What's going on here?

Should I force the upgrade in this case, or is there a better
solution?
