Sounds like you installed a sendmail.cf that was not generated from
/etc/mail/sendmail.mc and left the original sendmail.mc unmodified.
The rpm updated the unmodified sendmail.mc configuration file. The
startup script for sendmail then saw an apparently out-of-date
sendmail.mc and rebuilt it from the new sendmail.cf.
