I am finally at the point where I have a new set of rpms (newer patch level) to apply to a system.


Problem is there is no change in the rpm name, so yum does not see anything to update (even if the file create date is more recent).

Is there a magic yum parameter to get the update applied? Don't want to do an erase then install. Would that not make all new HIs?

Or perhaps the patch number should be included in the rpm name? The SIP communicator project does this with their nightly rpms.
