I don't know what you are doing to get an 'upgrading the rpm' but if you are using a redhat based system like Fedora or Cent OS you can always use `yum update` or `yum -y update` or even `yum -y install "pkge"` to install or update packages. But this will require a network connection.

yum-debug-restore
yum-debug-restore(1) yum-debug-restore(1)
NAME
yum-debug-restore - replay Yum transactions captured in a debug-dump file
SYNOPSIS
yum-debug-restore
DESCRIPTION
yum-debug-restore is a program which takes a gzipped file created by yum-debug-dump and acts on the information about installed packages
contained within.
GENERAL OPTIONS
--output
Output the commands that would be run to stdout.
--shell=<file>
Output the commands that would be run to a file.
--install-latest
Ask yum to install the latest version of the given packages, instead of the version that was installed in the debug-dump file.
--ignore-arch
Ignore the architecture of the packages, so you can "restore" an i386 debug-dump on an x86_64 machine.
--filter-types=[install,remove,update,downgrade]
Only perform the given types of commands, so you can filter to just upgrades and installs.
FILES
As yum-debug-restore uses YUM libraries for retrieving all the information, it relies on YUM configuration for its default values like
which repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for details:
/etc/yum.conf
/etc/yum/repos.d/
/var/cache/yum/
SEE ALSO

AUTHORS
See the Authors file included with this program.
BUGS
There are of course no bugs, but should you find any, you should first consult the FAQ section on http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq and if
unsuccessful in finding a resolution contact the mailing list: yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org. To file a bug use http://bugzilla.redhat.com
for Fedora/RHEL/Centos related bugs and http://yum.baseurl.org/report for all other bugs.
