It may be just package name vs. name of the rpm file,
and rpm -i vs rpm -U...

Try
# rpm -V ld.so (verify installed 'package' against rpm database)
or
# rpm -Vp ld.so-1.7.14-5.i386.rpm (verfy installed package against
rpm file)
If you want two different versions of ld.so installed, use
# rpm -iv pkg-ver.rpm
If you want just one installed, use
# rpm -Uvh pkg-ver.rpm
