Description of problem: "rpm -V tomcat7-el-1.0-api" shows wrong group ownership of: /usr/share/java/tomcat7/tomcat7-el-1.0-api-7.0.40.jar Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): tomcat7-el-1.0-api-7.0.40-5_patch_01.ep6.el5 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpm -V tomcat7-el-1.0-api Actual results: ......G. /usr/share/java/tomcat7/tomcat7-el-1.0-api-7.0.40.jar Expected results: no output Additional info: rpm -qf /usr/share/java/tomcat7/tomcat7-el-1.0-api-7.0.40.jar shows that the file (symlink) is owned by two packages: tomcat7-el-1.0-api-7.0.40-5_patch_01.ep6.el5 tomcat7-lib-7.0.40-5_patch_01.ep6.el5 This is most probably the cause of this problem. I haven't checked, but I think one of the rpms contains the symlink with different group ownership.
The resolution of rhbz 901173 resolves this also. The current version of el-api is 2.2 but was still labeled/named 1.0. This was true of the alternatives install as well. This bz was fixed in the process of relabeling and fixing alternatives install to use the correct name.
Check it, please.
