There was an incorrect desktop-file-install call in a package I maintain, i.e.

|desktop-file-install 
--dir=%{buildroot}%{_datadir}/applications/%{name}.desktop %{SOURCE1}

which caused the .desktop file to get installed to

/usr/share/applications/%{name}.desktop/%{name}.desktop

I fixed the syntax (by removing the %{name}.desktop part), but now when 
upgrading the package I get

Transaction check error:
   file /usr/share/applications/xflr5.desktop from install of 
xflr5-6.09.05-5.fc21.x86_64 conflicts with file from
package xflr5-6.09.05-4.fc21.x86_64

How can I make the update work smoothly? I tried explicitly specifying Conflicts: 
xflr5 < 5.09.05-5, but it did not
help.
xflr5-6.09.05-4.fc21.x86_64
xflr5-6.09.05-5.fc21.x86_64

why in the world do you specify any conflicts for a ordinary update?

I didn't do it in the package in the repos. It was just something I tried locally when trying to find a way to make the update work, since I ran out of ideas how to solve it otherwise.
