My apologies for bringing my newbyness on these subjects to this list.

The problem below would be my fault, not prelink's fault, due to doing
gratuitous prelinking and prelink undoing on a system fully loaded with
utilites, X windows, gnome2, nautilus, evolution and some friends all
running, and prelink core dumping (due to my system quirks) on a regular
basis.

I will take further discussion off list for now.
