"rpm -Va" should give a list of things that are not exactly as originally installed. The code in the first 8 columns tells what is different. Man rpm to get the details on the Verify option. Look at the output carefully. Many files get changed for configuration and just because they are listed in the output of "rpm -Va" does not mean they are necessarily bad. Reinstall pcre, libacl, db4, db4-devel and any others that show as corrupted. The install process should redo the necessary links and/or replace any corrupted files. The command "yum install pcre libacl db4\*" should do the trick. >
