Actually an unfortunate thing is that if you do go through and select

conflicting packages[1] installed and the rpm's are not setup to

specifically I know about:
A) rsyslog & syslog-ng
B) ccid|ifd-egate & ctapi-cyberjack-pcsc
It would be useful to have an "Everything that does not conflict" button
though.
[1] conflicting in as much as, you get nothing in /var/log/messages with
both syslog packages, and the ifd-cyberjack.bundle from
ctapi-cyberjack-pcsc causes pcscd to peg at 100% CPU and fail to do
ANYthing useful, if a reader for any of the other bundles is plugged in.
Well, that's not unexpected. I am guessing the whole point of the change was to
make it possible to stick in any number of possibly incompatible packages and
not have to answer for an unusable install. All that under excuse of "security".
