Ok, I know that comparison is against the file on disk but that's what it's all about. Why rpm -V shows differences in files md5 sums (no matter how hysterical md5 is, it is better than nothing) since these md5 sums in rpm database are exactly the same as md5 sums of files on disk? Even if I specify --nomd5 option, rpm tells that all files has changed md5 sums: root@pld:~# rpm -V --nomd5 wget ..5..... c /etc/wgetrc ..5..... d /usr/share/doc/wget-1.14/NEWS.gz ..5..... /usr/share/locale/hr/LC_MESSAGES/wget.mo ..5..... /usr/share/locale/nl/LC_MESSAGES/wget.mo ..5..... /usr/bin/rmold ..5..... d /usr/share/doc/wget-1.14/README.gz ..5..... /usr/share/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/wget.mo [...] >From my point of view it is a bug. rpm4 behaviour is more logical in this situation. _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
