From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; Galeon) Gecko/20031114 Galeon/1.3.10 Description of problem: The daily /etc/cron.daily/prelink script fails every day with the following error: /etc/cron.daily/prelink: line 36: 19629 Segmentation fault /usr/sbin/prelink -av $PRELINK_OPTS >>/var/log/prelink.log 2>&1 It leaves a file named /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.7.2.8.#prelink#.$blah, where $blah is a pseudo-random sequence of characters. A new one of those appears every night. Those files are 0-length. (Also, the presence of those files freaks out any subsequent runs of ldconfig.) The /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.7.2.8, which I assume is what's confusing prelink, is from compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.118. This happens on two different systems, each of which was upgraded from Red Hat 9 to Fedora Core 1. The problem started immediately after the upgrade. In the hopes that it was simply stale information somewhere, I tried manually running prelink as "prelink -av -mR". That succeeded. But subsequent night runs of the above script continued to fail. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): prelink-0.3.0-13 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run /etc/cron.daily/prelink (or just wait until 4am when it happens automatically). Actual Results: /etc/cron.daily/prelink: line 36: 19629 Segmentation fault /usr/sbin/prelink -av $PRELINK_OPTS >>/var/log/prelink.log 2>&1 Expected Results: (silence) Additional info:

I wasn't getting this under FC1, but I was getting the same error quite consistently under FC2 test3 until installing prelink-0.3.2-1 from the development updates. This update seems to have made the problem go away, so I guess this bug is somehow related to bug 118522 or bug 121109, which prelink-0.3.2-1's changelog claims to address.
Yeah, please try to reproduce this with FC3t3 (or FC3rc[1-4]) prelink. If it works there, this bug can be closed (FC1 is EOL).
Expect it is fixed then.
