Subject: Cannot upgrade MySQL version with rpm -U

>Description:
A few weeks ago I installed MySQL using the rpm-binary for i386 Linux.
This was version 3.22.20a. I now tried to upgrade this to 3.22.21 using
the rpm option -U. This always works with e.g. linux security patches.
Now I instead got the message:

[/tmp]# rpm -Uvh MySQL-3.22.21-1.i386.rpm 
/usr/bin/mysqlbug conflicts with file from MySQL-client-3.22.20a-1
error: MySQL-3.22.21-1.i386.rpm cannot be installed

>How-To-Repeat:
See above.

>Fix:
I would strongly suggest that you fix this problem if you're going to
distribute MySQL for rpm. If this doesn't work, there is not much 
use in downloading an rpm. It would then be prefereable to download
the source and compile it on your own machine.
