Guus.
although not identical - the RPM verification feature can tell you what file(s) from a particular package have changed since installation. Use:
RPM -Va
to run this check against the entire install. Of course, this is only useful if you are installing everything via RPM. But if you're anal about security, this is probably what you do anyway.

Neil, thank you: I didn't know I could do this. Even though I sometimes install non-rpm-packages, I would like to know what changed in the installed files.
I *really* love (the people on) this list...
Guus.
p.s. I assume 'being anal' about something means: gravely concerned or paranoid?
