Did you rpm verify?
# rpm -qV vim-enhanced
# rpm -qV gdb
Did you diff the text files?
Did you "binary diff" the binaries?
How many bytes difference? constant number?
prelink???
I do not think prelink would alter text configuration files like .Xauthority or .bash_history
No - the simple act of logging in did that - my vote is for prelink -
git is probably unaware of prelink.
