To upgrade to this package, pass --force to rpm.
Beware of overwritten config files that are usually backed up when using
--force (I think).
For one, I don't think "rpm -i --force" usually backs up overwritten
config files, and secondly, the config files are no more dangerous after
they're backed up than before!

PS: Good point, and this whole thing was caused by me messing
up names when releasing 1.2.0b1 so it won't happen again. :)
src.rpm worked great here and is running well, thanks.
-U --force, installs new conf file, but also makes a backup of
the conf file.
