Ack, thanks for confirming that.
The "use-case" for --force is to replace some file(s) from another package with
different content, in which case it's reasonable to allow an operator override.
But there's no circumstance in which it makes sense for a package to overwrite
it's own contents as would happen here. So ideally rpm should differentiate
between conflict types and only let --force influence things that can be
meaningfully achieved...
