-V. Indeed, but IIRC rpm is capable to unprelink first before computing checksums. The problem would be 3rd-party sec tools that need to checksum files somehow. They would need to be patched the same way than rpm, but one has yet to identify them all. > at rpm install time it can be a good idea... this will change md5sums too.
