--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2004-458 2004-11-23 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : prelink Version : 0.3.3 Release : 0.fc3 Summary : An ELF prelinking utility Description : The prelink package contains a utility which modifies ELF shared libraries and executables, so that far less relocations need to be resolved at runtime and thus programs come up faster. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: I believe this should fix the problems people are seeing with eggcups or gnome-volume-manager. For testing I'd especially appreciate testers updating to this prelink right after FC3 install, prelink at that point (either by manually running /etc/cron.daily/prelink or waiting a day) and only afterwards up2dating other packages and re-prelinking again. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Tue Nov 23 2004 Jakub Jelinek <jakub@xxxxxxxxxx> 0.3.3-0.fc3 - if layout code needs to re-prelink some library, make sure all libraries that depend on it are re-prelinked too (#140081) - add several more checks before deciding it is ok to prelink a binary (even if another bug like #140081 was in, these checks should hopefully catch it and refuse to (re-)prelink the binary) - added new PRELINK_NONRPM_CHECK_INTERVAL variable to /etc/prelink, defaulting to 7 days. Prelink nightly job will not do anything if that interval has not elapsed since last prelinking and and the rpm database has not been modified since that prelinking. This is useful if you rely on rpm/up2date/yum/apt-rpm for library and binary updates. If you combine it with other means (installs from source, tarballs etc.), you probably want to set PRELINK_NONRPM_CHECK_INTERVAL=0. - update prelink man page (#126468) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/3/ 27fcdffe47b38f3463abcf67a7caa903 SRPMS/prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3.src.rpm 526a5b0f2df03ba28f95a2e853256a87 x86_64/prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3.x86_64.rpm b92daaf9944283140dd289bd96a2b4da x86_64/debug/prelink-debuginfo-0.3.3-0.fc3.x86_64.rpm 73bda3aac811930f4532e35a13f84de4 i386/prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3.i386.rpm 7a0d6ec7a400d5dace07c2278019c496 i386/debug/prelink-debuginfo-0.3.3-0.fc3.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. You may need to edit your up2date channels configuration. Within /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources enable the following line: yum updates-testing http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/3/$ARCH ---------------------------------------------------------------------
