How reproducible:
I presume you would have to have a server at the same level as mine and run the exact same updates.

Steps to Reproduce:
sudo yum update

Same updates applied, but without the rpm_check_debug message?

Not sure what remi repo. is ... or all the packages you are replacing. You also seem to have an el4 package on a el5 machine (which is the problem).

Likely there is a pre-existing problem, try:

rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
