I would suggest a 'yum clean all'.

Do the supposed missing depencies exist on the servers?  i.e.
'/sbin/ldconfig' is said to be missing, what does 'ls -l
/sbin/ldconfig' show?  I'd be very supprised if it is missing.

It could be that you RPM database files are hosed, what's in
/var/lib/rpm/?  Should be something like the below.

Lastly, RHEL _really_ isn't that bad...  :)
