- You can start with: # rpm --verify --all --noscripts
-  You'll get the rpm names that are corrupted by having missing files.
-  With that list, simply remove them (rpm -e --nodeps), update the RHN

again.

Aftert I do a rpm --verify -all --noscripts
I get no rpm fileset names; only a reference to
a /usr/lib/libdb.so.3 :

With that list, simply remove them (rpm -e --nodeps), update the RHN
profile (up2date -p), and then run up2date to install those rpms again.
