alien converted package conflicts of /etc/init.d SOLVED

Hi,

I've tried to convert a deb package to rpm using the alien in mga 9.
The resulting rpm package cannot be installed:

Code: Select all: file /etc/init.d from install of warsaw-2.21.3-2.x86_64 conflicts with file from package chkconfig-1.21-1.mga9.x86_64 file /etc/init.d from install of warsaw-2.21.3-2.x86_64 conflicts with file from package initscripts-10.04-7.mga9.x86_64

Is there a known way to overcome this problem?

thanks in advance

added code tags ~Germ

Without changing the rpm or alien the answer is no. You can try to force the installation with rpm -ihv --force

Thanks to Morgano and doktor5000!

Forcing installation did work!
