Agreed, there's no reason to kill it entirely. Let people opt-in if
they wish to install it later & understand the cost/benefit tradeoff.

How do we make it go away on the installs it currently affects badly?

Do we add Conflict: to some packages (eg FIPS capable ones) ?

We could change the default /etc/sysconfig/prelink to default to no
prelinking, then for people with an unmodified /etc/sysconfig/prelink,
this will become the new /etc/sysconfig/prelink and the first time the
cronjob runs after the update it will unprelink all binaries (and I hope
it is smart enough to not run any more after that).

Regards,

Hans
