I was seeing messages regarding missing elements from packages when 
running prelink. I removed the db entry for mozilla, then ran 'yum 
update mozilla'. This still showed the same error in prelink. 'rpm 
--replacefiles --replacepkgs mozilla' did not change the error message.
I then --nodep removed mozilla, then reinstalled. I still have the same 
complaint with prelink. Error below:

prelink: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.12/libgtkembedmoz.so: Could not find one 
of the dependencies
prelink: /usr/lib/thunderbird-1.5/thunderbird-bin: Could not find one of 
the dependencies
prelink: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.12/mozilla-bin: Could not find one of the 
dependencies
prelink: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.12/regchrome: Could not find one of the 
dependencies
prelink: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.12/xpcshell: Could not find one of the 
dependencies
prelink: /usr/lib/firefox-1.5/firefox-bin: Could not find one of the 
dependencies

I then decided to run 'rpm -qaV |grep missing and am getting a slew of 
packages with missing elements. A lot of the packages are 
system-config-* packages with errors for file.pyc errors. docbook 
packages also seem to have a lot of missing components.

Is this a problem seen on anyone elses system? Or is this related to the 
post and pre scriptlet error or recent days?
