I ran the script below to see the files which owned by no package.

I got the following.
error: No package owns /etc/crontab error: No package owns /etc/localtime error: No package owns /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
Are these files necessary now, could I delete them?
I don't think checking ownership of files in /etc/ makes much sense, as these files are supposed to be added by user/daemons. For example, a lot of files under /etc/cups are not owned by cups... -- Leonid Isaev GnuPG key ID: 164B5A6D Key fingerprint: C0DF 20D0 C075 C3F1 E1BE 775A A7AE F6CB 164B 5A6D
