[edit] Text about prelink is outdated

This atricle says:

It's also not a bad idea to use prelink, however, you should emerge it when you want to use it and unmerge it when you're done. Otherwise portage will use it automatically, and some packages have issues with prelink - though gstreamer is the only one that comes to mind.

That is outdated, but I don't remember where I read that:

  • Portage doesn't run prelink. Therefore you don't need to uninstall/reinstall prelink.
  • Use PRELINK_PATH_MASK in /etc/env.d/60prelink to mask files that can't be prelinked. I use PRELINK_PATH_MASK to mask the nVidia drivers.
