But how was this installed?
In particular, was it installed via an RPM, or manually?
If it was installed manually, then the RPM database won't
have any idea that it is available, hence the error message.

If that's the only thing it's complaining about you're probably
OK to use "-force", but that something of a slippery slope.
In general, it's preferable to try and use RPMs for all installs.
