Say they've got CSWgfile (fileutils) installed.  They update their
catalog and then install CSWcoreutils.  This is _without_ doing a full
upgrade, just an install.  As I'll be removing the I between CSWgfile
and CSWcoreutils, the admin could now see file conflicts between the
two packages.  It all comes down to _how_ the admin adds
CSWcoreutils...
