Everything it does is "something".  If it aborts installing, picks one
of your choices to ignore, or tries to jam both on, there's going to be
problem for some people.  It may well be that you can't continue an
installation without resolving the issue.  I can't see a foolproof way
to let RPM (or anything else) handle it for you.
