I now and then check which files on my systems are not owned by any RPM package. That often turns up a lot's of old and obsolete stuff that sometimes eats space I'd like to free. During those checks I often find lots of files and directories that obviously should be owned by some packages but aren't.
Same here--compulsively--as part of a forhead-smackingly simple backup routine.
But I'm a bit unsure what to do with the results. Filing bugs likely would be huge amount of work as well as and never-ending task for a small gain. Options? Just ignore? Or will the automatic test scripts QA iirc plans to set up check for things like that in the future?
We should start with /usr and pare that down first before /etc and /var grunge. However, some bugs about /usr grunge have languished awaiting upstream intervention. I.e. http://bugzilla.redhat.com/136013
