What do I do about it ?
Figure out why these packages' scripts are failing. I don't see a
common denominator in the install scripts for these packages.
There must be multiple reasons.
Taking coreutils as an example, coreutils' %pre script runs find, and
/sbin/install-info.
Run 'rpm -V info findutils' to see if the info and findutils packages
are corrupted.
'rpm -V info findutils' produces nothing
