prelink is documented in release notes and has been mailed about on the mailing list many times. mtimes is not changed on purpose and prelink logs its activity in /var/log/prelink.log. What else are you missing? The mailing list I was referring to was fedora-announce-list, where it hadn't been mentioned. Something in fedoranews.org would help, too. Not changing mtimes breaks ancient unix standards. The contents of the file have changed, therefore so should the mtime. If you end up with a file of the same size, rsync won't back it up, for example, and as I mentioned the current activity looks like (and therefore masks) common hacking activity. --jh-- |
