Oh dear. I hope that's all it was.
You can use the command
rpm -Va
to get a list of which files have been installed by RPMs, but have been
changed or deleted. This can be a rather long one, since there will
probably be a lot of files that have changed normally. And it will take
a long time, because there will be a lot for it to check.
Once you've decided that a file is damaged or missing, you can use
rpm -qf /path/to/file
to identify the RPM in question.
And I, personally, would use
rpm -Fvh --oldpackage package.rpm
or
rpm -Fvh --replacepackgs package.rpm
to reinstall the packages.
Hope this helps,
James.
