Description

This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Still very much present. A simple fix was also put into this rhbz in the description. Please fix or give me a reason why you are not fixing this. Please let me know if there is a problem with this suggestion. You may unlink by setting in /etc/sysconfig/prelink, PRELINKING=no see /etc/sysconfig/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 Sergio, that does not help when someone runs rpm -e prelink and the files were prelinked at the time. prelink should never leave prelinked files behind when it is being uninstalled. It must run prelink -ua in %preun (In reply to Paul Wouters from comment #6) > prelink should never leave prelinked files behind when it is being > uninstalled. It must run prelink -ua in %preun I agree , we should have : prelink -ua in %preun Thanks, This is a reminder according to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers The bug is easy to fix, open for more than two years and there were several requests for a response. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle. Changing version to '23'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora23 This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. guess prelink has finally been removed from fedora The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days |
