Description Marcin Gucia 2007-12-11 02:48:43 UTC
Description of problem:

rpm -Uvh foo-1.0-1.i386.rpm upgrades package, it dosn't install. To install you
can use rpm -ivh foo-1.0-1.i386.rpm 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Revision 5.1.0-1

Actual results:
rpm -Uvh foo-1.0-1.i386.rpm

Expected results:
rpm -ivh foo-1.0-1.i386.rpm

Comment 1 Don Domingo 2008-02-01 04:41:53 UTC
actually, rpm -Uvh can also install a package. 

anyhow, clarified this in source (in "Installing" section: rpm -ivh to install,
rpm -Uvh to upgrade or install) to prevent confusion. setting this bug as MODIFIED.
