Like I said, sometime RPM gets confused. By forcing a package to be

Using the replace package option seems to be a perhaps safer way to do
this when rpm's database is confused. Also, rebuilding the database
isn't a bad idea either.
What are the commands to replace a package and to rebuild the RPM database?
