So what is the default behaviour? Say I were to install sylpheed or
mozilla, with a few additional libraries being sucked down by urpmi.
Would the program overwrite the old applications and libraries, or does
it make new folders for them? Is there a way to tell urpmi to overwrite
anything it finds (aside from your interesting suggestion, above), and is
this even a good idea?
