i don't recall if there's a specific rpm list, so here goes.
i'm unclear on what exactly rpm is "verifying" when i verify
an installed package. as i understand it, rpm will check
various attributes such as size, perms, checksum and so on,
against the initial attributes at time of package installation,
and flag any discrepancies.
ok, so
# rpm -ql setup (basic OS files, including
/etc/passwd)
but when i verify setup:
# rpm -V setup
only /etc/services is flagged, despite the fact that i've
added extra users which clearly has changed /etc/passwd.
why is rpm not flagging that?

p.s. rh 6.1, rpm-3.0.3
