Fedora Core 3 Prelink Update 0.3.3 Moderate: Library Dependency Improvement

if layout code needs to re-prelink some library, make sure all libraries that depend on it are re-prelinked too (#140081). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2004-458 2004-11-30 --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Tue Nov 23 2004 Jakub Jelinek 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: 99134805982f029effbe6753b5d594bb SRPMS/prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3.src.rpm 2ca561a6e50d822e111a48e42f42d760 x86_64/prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3.x86_64.rpm a5aec63c86f618825c2db1009724bdc0 x86_64/debug/prelink-debuginfo-0.3.3-0.fc3.x86_64.rpm b294401ce88764a83b3e75fac5bee856 i386/prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3.i386.rpm a120d8f97a6ad288f645d22cde1d70c1 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------- .
