I thought you could blacklist libraries and binaries based on using the -b prefix in your /etc/prelink.conf file: # If a file name is prefixed with `-b ', the file is black listed # and not tried to be prelinked (use for binary only distributions) Example: # glide -b /usr/lib/libglide.so.2.53 -b /usr/bin/test3Dfx -b /usr/lib/libtexus.so.1 -b /usr/lib/libtexus.so.1.1 -b /usr/bin/texus Tex
