No idea myself, broken packages happens several times a year with me
.. So i make it a habit to verify my installed RPMs before concluding
something is a bug ... I'm guessing it might be interrupted
transactions, harddisk problem, some other apps did modification and
break stuff (eg: the daily prelink) .. or ..a hidden bug somewhere in
rpm or yum which couldn't be easily reproduced ...
