If we wanted to do this, changing 'PRELINKING=no' in /etc/sysconfig/prelink in a package update would do it -- the config file is marked as 'noreplace', but if the file hasn't been edited locally, it would be overwritten with the updated one. Then, at the next cron run, prelink would undo the prelinking. I'm not sure if this is the route we should take, or if installation of the package should default to it being active; just putting this out there as an option. -- Matthew Miller ☁☁☁ Fedora Cloud Architect ☁☁☁ <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
