Trying rpm -Va, I am getting lots of these lines
S.?..... /usr/bin/kblankscrn.kss
S.?..... /usr/bin/kcminit
S.?..... /usr/bin/kcminit_startup
Basically, the size has changed, and the md5 check cannot be performed ?! I understand this is due to "prelink", but that sux ! This effectively kills the rpm -V functionality. Is it not possible to prelink binaries on the server before wrapping them into rpms ? Any suggested solution around this ?

Interesting toy! I think you mentioned it at Fudcon Boston and I
hadn't been able to recall the right name.
Thinking of using it in the use case of the school server (very
unreliable power, no sysadmins available, 100% unattended updates) -
- Is it safe to run at boot time via an init script?
- Is there an easy way to check for pending transactions?
- Does it have useful exit codes indicating whether it's done anything?

Another good tool to add to the arsenal.

Is that different from `package-cleanup --problems` ?
