Can I confirm that by the above, you mean that prelink is almost certain to be removed after 2.35 is released? Yocto Project has an LTS due soon and this does influence what we do there a little which is why I'm asking specifically. I'm saddened but resigned to it, the sad reality is there aren't enough people to maintain everything and the utility of prelink is now questionable. Cheers, Richard
