I would not recommend using --force unless you really know what your
doing.  Blindly force installing random packages is a quick way to end
up with a completely hosed rpm database.

Using jhbuild is fine and all, but there shouldn't be any conflicts
introduce by building a package locally and then manually installing it.

That is.. unless you picked up a non-moblin source rpm, and were unlucky
enough to for this new package to try and install files that are already
owned by some other package.
