Yes, the rpm packages don't need --force, unless you start actually using any -devel and then you have to use it all the time, which is annoying if you actually want to upgrade packages, since there is no yum --force..

Just so that you know, I maintain over 100 RPM packages and never had to use --force even though I routinely use -devel packages.

oh but then I look it up and it's already been a bug for the past 3 releases of fedora with nothing that has been done to fix it. llvm devel packages have the same issue, also not fixed.
