Yes, I saw these warnings too when testing these packages. I think the 
warnings above are generated due to the RPM update process because these 
files existed as symlinks in the old package, but in the new package 
they are real files. If you check, the files above should exist (not 
symlinks).

Uninstalling and reinstalling nvidia-x11-drv generates no warnings if 
you are at all concerned, but I don't believe there is anything to worry 
about.
