Installing and Upgrading Software Using RPM
Scott, please don't encourage people to blindly skip to rpm -Uvh. Always start by trying rpm -ivh, then if you get complaints about conflicts, then try performing selective updates using rpm -Uvh. On some distros, it is possible to have multiple versions of the same package installed at the same time. If you skip straight to the update, you might end up removing a package you'll later wish you'd kept.
