Description of problem: Look at this: # rpm -U --force mozilla-1.7.8-2.x86_64.rpm # rpm -V mozilla missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/browser missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/browser/content missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/browser/skin missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/cookie missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/cookie/content missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/editor missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/editor/content missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/global missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/global/content missing /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo/global/skin So where they went? All these directories (they are directories) are present if one will unpack using rpm2cpio. It appears that some installation scripts are executing in an unexpected order. On i386 installation there are missing directories too. Maybe instead of /bin/rm -rf /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo in scriplets one should have there: find /usr/lib64/mozilla-1.7.8/chrome/overlayinfo ! -type d | xargs rm -f The original missing pieces were revealed during an 'rpm -Va' check which I run for other reasons. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mozilla-1.7.8-2
