Another option is to try is
rpm -F --replacepkgs {package name}
This will re-install the rpm, even if it exists. This should fix the
issue of file permissions and possibly changed/corrupted files.
Some of these "installs" involved downgrading (because the install dvd
is out of date for many packages), that's why I used --force (it
implies --oldpackage). Anyway, this part went quite smoothly, except
for stuff like
missing /usr/share/system-config-securitylevel/checklist.pyc
missing /usr/share/system-config-securitylevel/firstboot_selinux.pyc
missing /usr/share/system-config-securitylevel/scs_checklist.pyc

missing

yc
missing /usr/share/system-config-securitylevel/trustedchecklist.pyc
showing up in rpm -Va, which I suspect is a packaging bug and has
nothing to do with my recent troubles. But I may be wrong about
this...

I get a lot of missing files on occasion with system-config-* programs
when I verify the rpms.
Most of the time, I just remove the database entry then use yum to
install the package again. Other times, I just remove the package using
rpm and r\then reinstall the package with yum.
Why system-config-* packages end up with missin files is unknown to me
though.
