The conflict is with systemtap-server, which must be updated as well so that the overlapping files are identical.

OTOH we could change the spec file for %package server to Require: the
exact same version of systemtap as itself (and corresponding changes
elsewhere).

Yeah, I didn't mean to imply that it was Paul's error.  If we can automatically coax the synchronized update with Requires, we probably should.  And given the file conflict, it seems we actually must.

upstream commit ad12652 should fix this by forcing future partial updates
to go whole-hog.  In the mean time, '# yum update systemtap\*'
