Description Ivan Zakharyaschev 2009-03-27 01:28:24 MSK 
rpm-4.0.4-alt77.M40.11

man rpm says:

    INSTALL AND UPGRADE OPTIONS
...
      --nobuild
              Do not install the package, simply check for and report potential conflicts.

but it doesn't work:

# rpm -Uhv emacs23* --nobuild
--nobuild: unknown option
# 

Correction: --test should be used.
