My nightly script which checks the integrity of the files on my system reported last night that "rpm --verify" was reporting this problem with the file /usr/bin/gctags in emacs-common-21.3-9: jik:~!1007$ sudo rpm --verify emacs-common /etc/security/selinux/src/policy/file_contexts/file_contexts: No such file or directory SM5....T /usr/bin/gctags I investigated and discovered that the emacs-common RPM claims that gctags is supposed to be a symlink to ctags.emacs, and yet /usr/bin/gctags on my system is a binary whose ctime is 4:09 in the morning, which just happens to be shortly after run-parts /etc/cron.daily was run. I suspect that prelink decided to prelink this file and converted the symlink into a file as a result. Is that possible? If so, it's obviously a bug.
looks like a dup of bug 113261. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 113261 ***
I don't know why this ticket was marked as a duplicate of the SELinux message issue. It has nothing to do with that. It has to do with the fact that prelink is replacing symlinks with regular files, which it shouldn't do.
can't reproduce with prelink-0.3.2-3. CLOSING -> RAWHIDE reopen if problem still exists.
