libfipscheck

Another yum mess:
After an apparently successfull yum update, sshd didn't start with the following error message:

/usr/lib/libfipscheck.so.1: file too short

The file was 0 bytes.
Where does it come from?

# yum provides libfipscheck.so.1

fipscheck-lib-1.2.0-1.el5.i386 : Library files for fipscheck
Repo        : rhel-5.5-x86_64
Matched from:
Other       : libfipscheck.so.1

the package was installed but somewhat corrupted, so I reinstalled it:

# yum reinstall fipscheck-lib

after that, sshd started fine.
