Is there a particular file that can be used to establish either the original system installation date, or the distribution datestamp that can be used distinguish between files that were part of the original installation and those that have been changed since?
The RPM database includes an exhaustive list of the files installed and their original checksums, so it can be used to validate existing files, find missing ones and by listing all the files installed, allow you to determine which files were during subsequent operation of the system.
I want to avoid having to do this on a file by file basis.
