maemo has its own precaching system afaik (compiles the programs as libraries and thread them with maemo-invoker, maemo-launcher ,... but this is only for the apps build as libraries which are mostly the ones provided by nokia.
I didn't tried prelude or libferris on arm yet. but i found quite interesting the use of the diablo toolkit for optimizing binaries at linkage time. Take a look on the project. Integrating it for scratchbox will be a easy and will benefit both projects. so diablo works for intel and arm (also for mips, ia64 and alpha) http://diablo.elis.ugent.be/ On Mon, 05 May 2008 20:11:38 +1000 Ben Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > I notice that back in the maemo 3.x days there was a prelink package > for maemo [1].
