With RKH it depends on whether you have modified the RKH configuration file to use the RPM package manager (I can't remember if mentioned this or not). If it isn't using the package manager, then RKH will simply verify files using the 'prelink' command. If the package manager is used, then the 'rpm' command is used. Either command can give an error relating to prelinking (and this is what RKH is showing you). I can't really help any further with this without going into more detail about what RKH is doing. If you want to pursue it then contact me off list.
