Re: [Fink-devel] Prebinding

[John Davidorff Pell]

Would adding (either manually, or automatically) -prebind/LD_PREBIND to packages break them if it doesn't work? I don't think so, so why not start adding this automatically so that if the package can be prebound, it is? Please tell me if I'm missing something big.

Thanx,
JP

Furthermore it is not as simple as simply adding --prebind. Many pieces of software are not yet fixed to fully support prebinding, much less proper relocation nor 'reentrancy'.
