If the file deleted is not a user data file and is an application related file, the same can be found out by verifying the rpm package.
If you give the following command [nb config]# rpm --verify bind S.5..... c /etc/rndc.key missing d /usr/share/doc/bind-9.2.1/rfc/rfc3110.txt.gz _ the above command shows, that the file /usr/share/doc/bind-9.2.1/rfc/rfc3110.txt.gz is missing. If you need to know all the files missing in your system [nb config]# for i in `rpm -qa` ; do echo $i; rpm --verify $i; done The above will list all the files that are missing, modified or changed on your system, since they were installed on you system. The above command will not work for the applications installed by compiling directly on the system.
