      Description of problem:
      After reboot, the /var/lib/fprint file gets wrong permissions than what rpm database expects.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
      fprintd-1.94.0-3.el9.x86_64

      How reproducible:
      100%

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. Check wrong permissions using rpm -Va

      1. rpm -Va | awk ' { if (substr($0,2,1)=="M") print $NF }' | grep fprint
        /var/lib/fprint

        2. Set the permissions according to rpm database
        # rpm --setperms fprintd

        3. Verify that /var/lib/fprint has correct permissions now
        # rpm -Va | awk '{ if (substr($0,2,1)=="M") print $NF }

        ' | grep fprint

      4. Reboot

      5. Check permissions again

      1. rpm -Va | awk ' { if (substr($0,2,1)=="M") print $NF }

        ' | grep fprint
        /var/lib/fprint

      Actual results:
      /var/lib/fprint permissions are changed after reboot

      Expected results:
      /var/lib/fprint has correct permissions according to rpm db after reboot

      Additional info:
      Expected permissions:

      1. rpm -q --queryformat="[% {FILEMODES:perms}

        %

        {FILENAMES}

        \n]" fprintd | grep "/var/lib/fprint"
        drwxr-xr-x /var/lib/fprint

      Permissions after reboot:

      1. ls -ld /var/lib/fprint
        drwx------. 2 root root 6 Aug 26 2021 /var/lib/fprint
