Hmm... the only time I used rpm was to install RPMFusion
and livna. Is that a problem?
That would explain it.
Can this warning be reset/cleared?
You could try reinstalling with yum. btw, as far as I recall the latest
yum supports installing rpm packages over http or ftp. No reason to use
rpm directly any more. :) (except for queries and troubleshooting ofc :-p)
