Can we suspect that you did read "man rpm"? If yes, what do you not
understand from reading it? It makes clear that "-i" installs a package
while "-U" leads to an upgrade of an already installed package, else -
if a package by that name isn't already rpm installed - it does the same
as "-i".
Consequence: "rpm --install" can lead to different versions being
install in parallel, while "rpm --upgrade" removes the older version.
