When I run 'yum install package' or 'yum update' commands the yum command works normally until Running Transaction Test and hangs until the yum process is killed manually using the kill command. How do I fix this problem under CentOS Linux 5.x AMD64 running on HP server? It would be useful to have an analogous tool to yum-complete-transaction in dnf. Sometimes it happens e.g. That the battery runs out while installing updates to a laptop, which is then pretty painstaking to fix without an automatic tool.

Replacing files from another RPM package is bad idea in most cases and I strongly advise against what you're trying to do. That said, apply following at your own risk.Yum does not provide an option to install conflicting files, I think. However, that does not prevent you from installing a RPM package with rpm(1) which does provide an option to override existing files from another package, namely -replacefiles.So, first get the RPM of the package you want to install on a local filesystem ( /usr/local/xenco.
Makes me suspect that is the case already). Next install the RPM with rpm -i -replacefiles.
