Also, it would only prelink the specific package that you just installed, so it would not take quite so long. I still see tons of problems with that, especially in the form of prelinking libraries. A newer version of a library would not only require itself to be prelinked, but also any application which referred to that library. This is a slippery slope and is easily dealt with in binary distributions, but quite a bit harder to accomplish on a source-based distribution. --=20 Chris Gianelloni Developer, Gentoo Linux --=-GRpvemXiq8kq6he4lp+9 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQA/OqEHkT4lNIS36YERAqxnAJ0ZtT6YBx/sf9UmAyzVGfB9vw16awCeNAEw urwd4H7nAfiG6OzmySDta08= =TSO4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-GRpvemXiq8kq6he4lp+9--
