I would like to ask for some help understanding the information I am seeing on a FC2 system. If I do an ls of say /usr/bin/vim as follows: [root@sys root]# ls -al /usr/bin/vim -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2077400 Apr 7 06:30 /usr/bin/vim and then do a rpm -q --dump vim-enhanced as follows: [root@ds2 root]# rpm -q --dump vim-enhanced /etc/profile.d/vim.csh 13 1081333835 1f26ff8ae76565efa8a8bada7f3a4b9e 0100755 root root 1 0 0 X /etc/profile.d/vim.sh 181 1081333835 fca2984c13cc21b51aefe32e8f07da9c 0100755 root root 1 0 0 X /usr/bin/ex 3 1081333834 00000000000000000000000000000000 0120777 root root 0 0 0 vim /usr/bin/rvim 3 1081333834 00000000000000000000000000000000 0120777 root root 0 0 0 vim /usr/bin/vim 2071700 1081333839 db9006780239b03107684022d7f6aaee 0100755 root root 0 0 0 X /usr/bin/vimdiff 3 1081333834 00000000000000000000000000000000 0120777 root root 0 0 0 vim /usr/bin/vimtutor 1600 1081333833 fe1b22a87b7cc6dd9d2d126d641da861 0100755 root root 0 0 0 X /usr/share/man/man1/rvim.1.gz 8 1081333835 00000000000000000000000000000000 0120777 root root 0 1 0 vim.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/vimdiff.1.gz 688 1081333833 f695833c2d4f22944f4dc17649fdb096 0100644 root root 0 1 0 X /usr/share/man/man1/vimtutor.1.gz 666 1081333834 d77cc03c3633742da13f37579e86c919 0100644 root root 0 1 0 X I believe the second column contains the files size as recorded in the rpm database. However in the above example the file size reported in the rpm database for /usr/bin/vim is 2071700. The ls -l reports 2077400. Am I looking at this wrong? -- Scot L.
