Description Stanislav Brabec 2005-11-29 18:00:00 UTC 
RPM package mDNSResponder installs symlink /var/run/mdnsd pointing to /var/lib/mdnsd/var/run/mdnsd. This symlink is removed in the system and replaced by file. It causes RPM complains.

sbrabec@hammer:~> rpm -V mDNSResponder
SM?....T   /var/run/mdnsd
sbrabec@hammer:~> rpm -vql mDNSResponder | grep /var/run/mdnsd
drwxr-xr-x    2 mdnsd   nogroup             0 Sep  9 19:22 /var/lib/mdnsd/var/run/mdnsd

sbrabec@hammer:~> ls -ald /var/run/mdnsd
