<p>I'm not fond of these --do-foo-except-in-this-one-special-case-do-bar style options, they rarely make sense in the big picture.<br>
One possibility might be reusing --force for the purpose. It's wired to something else but maybe it could be special-cased in combination of -br --nodeps. Or if that isn't feasible, I'd rather have --force-srpm or such which might be applicable to more cases than just this.</p>
