I understand this is due to "prelink", but that sux ! This effectively kills the rpm -V functionality. Is it not possible to prelink binaries on the server before wrapping them into rpms ? Any suggested solution around this ?<br>

</div>Interesting toy! I think you mentioned it at Fudcon Boston and I<br>
hadn't been able to recall the right name.<br>
<br>
Thinking of using it in the use case of the school server (very<br>
unreliable power, no sysadmins available, 100% unattended updates) -<br>
<br>
- Is it safe to run at boot time via an init script?<br>
- Is there an easy way to check for pending transactions?<br>
- Does it have useful exit codes indicating whether it's done anything?<br>

</div>Another good tool to add to the arsenal.<br>

</div>Is that different from `package-cleanup --problems` ?<br>
