rpm verify fails bigtime - prelink errors x1000+

[David Timms]

The machine i'm on is a FC5test2 install kept up2date with pup.

On recommendation from someone on the list to verify the rpm install 
using: rpm -Va, I found a few items: mainly missing files-
missing     /usr/share/system-config-soundcard/probeCard.pyc
missing     /usr/share/system-config-soundcard/soundcard.pyc
missing     /usr/share/system-config-soundcard/soundcardBackend.pyc
missing     /usr/share/system-config-soundcard/system-config
I guess this could be a problem so I: rpm -Uvh --force 
system-config-soundcard(-v currently installed). This cleared the 
problem up, ie no result for rpm -V sy-co-so...

missing     /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.12/chrome/overlayinfo/browser

Repeat same with mozilla.
Repeated the rpm -V mozilla, and same files are still marked missing!

Between about wednesday last week (first version) and the weekend the 
system-config-display files went from missing to modified !
Is this to be expected ?
Why would an installed python code be different to what came out of the 
RPM ?

prelink: /usr/sbin/bonobo-activation-sysconf: at least one of file's 
dependencies has changed since prelinking
S.?......   /usr/sbin/bonobo-activation-sysconf

prelink: /usr/bin/chage: at least one of file's dependencies has changed

*** the above error has also been listed more than one thousand times. 
Should this error ever be seen ?
When new binaries/libraries are installed (pup), doesn't yum trigger a 
prelink run ?
What steps to take to clear the error ?

Thanks for any info, DaveT.
