[rhn-users] problems experienced with up2date

[Alfred Hovdestad]

It is telling you that something has changed in your initscripts 
package.  You can determine the changes with

rpm -V initscripts


See man rpm for the meaning of the attributes:


        c %config configuration file.
        d %doc documentation file.
        g %ghost file (i.e. the file contents are not included in the 
package payload).
        l %license license file.
        r %readme readme file.


        S file Size differs
        M Mode differs (includes permissions and file type)
        5 MD5 sum differs
        D Device major/minor number mismatch
        L readLink(2) path mismatch
        U User ownership differs
        G Group ownership differs
        T mTime differs
        C selinux Context differs
