The best way to make sure your binaries are not altered by 3rd party tools is this: emerge -euD world This is slightly amusing. Remerging every package while prelink is still installed will use prelink again... Also --update and --deep are ignored with --emptytree. Finally --unmerge of any prelinked package would fail the checksum and the binaries would be left alone if prelink --undo didn't work. But because portage does prelink --undo (which works) before checking the checksum --unmerge works just fine... -- Bo Andresen pgp9jbRCCryna.pgp Description: PGP signature

I prefer to do my prelinking myself, so I set it to no - and emerge keeps its hand off prelink. Yes, I missed that. Portage just adds to the list of locations in /etc/prelink.conf that should be prelinked if PRELINKING is set to yes. And during unmerge is runs prelink --undo as already mentioned. So if PRELINKING is set to yes then setting it to no is actually all that is required: # head -n 4 /etc/conf.d/prelink # Set this to no to disable prelinking altogether # (if you change this from yes to no prelink -ua # will be run next night to undo prelinking) PRELINKING=yes And if it is set to no then `prelink -ua` is sufficient to undo manual prelinking. -- Bo Andresen pgplBmKJQkKJx.pgp Description: PGP signature

Hi, emerge -euD world but: is this going to recompile everything (e option) or only those that needs upgrade? Regards, mc -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

As in it doesn't do its job or as in it makes the system unstable? My whole system is prelinked and it is very stable. Startup times of C++ applications are shorter.
