/var/log/getty.log is listed in the getty_ps RPM's file list, but isn't actually present. This causes it to be listed as missing whenever `rpm -V getty_ps' is run. Fix: One of 1. Remove /var/log/getty.log from getty_ps's file list (like most other log files in the system) 2. Mark /var/log/getty.log as %ghost (preferred) If the correct choice is #2, some other files should also be treated alike; e.g., /var/log/xfs-errors and /var/log/xdm-error.log should be listed as %ghost in XFree86.
corrected as of getty_ps-2.0.7j-7.
