I recently upgraded to FC6 from FC5 via yum. All appeared fine for a few days. Today, my desktop was hosed. I finally figured out that I was missing the nautilus program. According to yum, nautilus was installed, however, the binary was missing from /usr/bin (maybe I deleted it accidentally somehow).
Is there anyway to have yum scan all the rpms to make sure what should be installed is actually installed?
Thanks,
Jim

If you do
rpm -qVa
it will mention any problems that it finds (in a weird format)
--Ray
Works perfect, just what I was looking for. Thanks for the response!

Also package-cleanup which is part of yum-utils can be useful.
