Patch for tazpkg bug when reinstalling a package

Hi,

When you try to reinstall a package with --forced, you often end up with this error (half in French here, but you'll get the idea):

[c]Installation de slim...cp: cannot create regular file[/c]
/usr/bin/slim': Fichier texte occupé

                                                                     [ Echec ]
