Description of problem:
problem reported in IT #56355:
------------------------------

It looks like there may be a problem with one of the packages in U4
PPC.  It looks like the problem is in the upgrade logic:

# rpm -Uv /mnt/ppcU4/libstdc++-devel-3.2.3-47.ppc.rpm
Preparing packages for installation...libstdc++-devel-3.2.3-47
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/include/c++/3.2.3/
ppc-redhat-linux/bits/time_members.h;41b4c27d: cpio: link failed -
File exists

# rpm -qf /usr/include/c++/3.2.3/ppc-redhat-linux/bits/time_members.h
libstdc++-devel-3.2.3-42

So RPM is complaining about a file that it is supposed to be upgrading.

Obviously, he has a workaround already. He just was reporting the
problem to be friendly. Thus severity 4.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libstdc++-devel-3.2.3-47.ppc.rpm

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -Uvh libstdc++-devel-3.2.3-47.ppc.rpm
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  error from RPM

Expected Results:  upgrade package
