What else would such a "checker" have to check against but the RPM database?
for i in `rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME} "` ; do rpm -q -V $i ; done
Be warned
- this finds a bug in RPM on my box, gives a (generally) harmless backtrace
- It's noisy, a lot of things have changed as a normal part of using
the package.
>From the man file:
S file Size differs
M Mode differs (includes permissions and file type)
5 MD5 sum differs
D Device major/minor number mismatch
L readLink(2) path mismatch
U User ownership differs
G Group ownership differs
T mTime differs
- you probably want to capture the output or pipe it through less
to fix them, I guess you could try reinstalling the rpm involved with
--oldpackage. I couldn't find a way to get --list on RPM to show filemodes.
