[fedora-india] How to write spec file with upgrade option?

[Lakshmipathi.G]

Sorry for late reply (came online after pongal holidays :P ). I think,there
is some misunderstanding on my question . May be I should be more clearer.I
have written an rpm spec file and built binary rpm using "rpmbuild" and
installing this rpm (-i) works well.
Now I want to provide rpm -U option - so that user can upgrade to next
version easily (Currently user have to use rpm -e and rpm -i <new-version>).
Google gave me this  http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-rpm2/  but
I'm looking for more info/links -on how to create upgradable
packages.(writting rpm spec file that supports rpm -U )
