None of those files are trojans, I checked them myself.

Go on, have a guess
The reason you get so many false-positives is that you have OS vendor installed rpms which cPanel overwrites with copies compiled from source. The Trojan function simply performs an rpm -V on the rpm database and reports the inconsistencies that this causes.

For that reason, it isn't that much practical use and you're better off using a tool that monitors for binary/library file changes.
