rpm --verify output (RPM version 4.15.1 )

  • 1.  rpm --verify output (RPM version 4.15.1 )

    Hello,

    with AIX 7100-04-04 i had install rpm packages from Perzl distribution.
    After Upgade to 7200-05-01 i have problems with sudo (After entering Password i get "Sorry, try again.").

    I deside to change my installation with packeges from Linux Toolsbox.
    With the "destroyRPMS.sh" i removed the old installtion.
    After this rpm.rte is installed again. Also i installed the nessacery packeges for sudo.
    sudo is working now. Sudo version 1.9.5p2

    Why does rpm verfiy reports file mode difference?
    # rpm --verify sudo
    S.5....T. c /etc/sudoers
    .M....... /etc/sudoers.d
    .M....... /opt/freeware/libexec/sudo
    .M....... /opt/freeware/libexec64/sudo
    .M....... /var/lib/sudo
    .M....... /var/lib/sudo/lectured
    .M....... /var/run/sudo

    I observed this behavior for the first time after the AIX ugrade to 7200-04-02 Since perzl packeges were still installed there, I suspected that this was what caused it.
