This is what I did to work with jpilot. You *may* not need to roll jpilot 
back but this now works. The --relocate causes there to not be any file 
collisions.

>From Jul19:

As has been discussed on the jpilot list and also posted here:

pilot-link is broken under FC4. The solution is to go with the pilot-link 
from FC3. Get the old rpms and install them. If you use jpilot

rpm -ivh --force --relocate /usr=/opt/jpilot jpilot-0.99.7-2.i386.rpm \
   pilot-link-0.11.8-8.i386.rpm
