Having a weird issue with CentOS 6. I lost a lot of stuff in /bin/ (cp,rpm,cat and others) on one host, but that was a development machine and I'm not really sure what happened there.

• coreutils & vim-minimal are installed according to rpm

Do you miss all coreutils files or just a few...? rpm -qV coreutils

How did you remove postgresql...? rpm -e or yum remove?

This sounds like a local problem. 'rpm -Va' should show everything that differs from the packages that should be installed and you can use 'yum reinstall' to fix them up. Not sure if there is a handy way to see the packages the damaged/missing files belong to all at once, but 'rpm -q --whatprovides /path/to/file' will check individually.
