RPM weirdness

I'm a flailing at cluefulness here.  Maybe someone can set me straight.

I run "yum" nightly (as as service), but I see a lot of "*.rpmnew" files
being left around.

What's most bizarre is that the original RPM files haven't been changed,
and often the two files have the same size, contents (and hence MD5
signature), permissions, ownership, etc.  Even the same file modification
date in most cases.

So why do they get left behind?

# cd /etc/security
# ls -ltr chroot*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 82 Aug  1 05:18 chroot.conf.rpmnew
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 82 Aug  1 05:18 chroot.conf
# diff -c chroot.conf.rpmnew chroot.conf
# mv chroot.conf.rpmnew chroot.conf
#


Thanks,

-Philip
