This always irritated me

bor@cooker% sudo urpmi glibc
installing /mnt/hd/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/glibc-2.2.4-22mdk.i586.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        initscripts <= 6.40.2-6mdk conflicts with glibc-2.2.4-22mdk
Installation failed

Well, is this logic acceptable?

If package A conflicts with B
   And package B is installed
   And newer version of B is available
Install newer version of B

Does it always work?
