Subject: Re: [gentoo-dev] Portage prelink patch?

grep prelink /usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py
gives lots of crap ...

So it is still there! In fact there is a trivial patch waiting to be
merged for prelink. So portage is prelink enabled, it just does not run
the prelink command automatically .

This was because prelink was slightly buggy and could not be relied on
the succeed and took too long to run.

Newer versions of prelink are much better so there could be a new case
to make portage run prelink after a (un)merge automatically.

But I cannot be bothered to push the idea (laziness).
