Hi list, I'm a bit worried here. On a server, Centos 4.3 fully-patched SELinux activated, Osiris (a decentralized scanner for files changes on distant servers) signaled me several changes on files who were not (at first sight) affected by a recent update (the list is below). Is there a logic explanation for those changes to happen ? The "rpm -Va" command does not output md5sum change for those files.

most likely prelink, rpm -V knows about prelink and is as such able to do the checksums regardless. prelink can be turned of in /etc/sysconfig/prelink if you don't want it.
