You are getting the errors because two different packages (freeradius 
and freeradius-server) are both claiming to own the same files (because 
you renamed the package). To correct this problem simply remove the 
first package (rpm -e freeradius) and the conflicts should go away. 
However, you might want to consider using a package name of freeradius 
and not freeradius-server so the names are consistent with the rpm names 
in use on RHEL, Cent, and Fedora systems.
