file conflicts with previous version

["James M. Leddy" <jleddy redhat com>]

I know that upgrading via yum is unsupported an not to ever do it and 
to use preupgrade, but I'm still curious as to why I get messages like 
this:

  file /etc/gpm-twiddler.conf from install of 
gpm-1.20.6-3.fc11.x86_64 conflicts with file from package 
gpm-1.20.5-2.fc10.i386

Shouldn't it be obvious that you're going to replace files when 
upgrading a package?
