modified the script a little:

#!/bin/bash
              
updatedb && locate "" | sort > allFiles
               
rpm -qal | \
grep -v "^/proc" | \
grep -v "^/sys" | \
grep -v "\(contains no files\)" | \
sort | uniq \
 > filesFromRpms
               
comm -3 allFiles filesFromRpms > filesNotFromRpms
wc -l filesFromRpms filesNotFromRpms
wc -l allFiles

the strange thing is that lines with proc and sys DO get into 
filesFromRpms, I've tried also with grep -v "/proc" with no success also.
If I make the grep so the filesFromRpms file It works, but shouldn't it 
work directrly with pipe?

Ingo
