Hello,
I have a question about prebinding with packages installed by fink. (NB I am not at my Mac now, so I may have mis-remembered some environment variable names etc) I have installed vim using fink and noticed that vim takes an annoyingly long time to start up when invoked from the command line. I checked dyld by setting DYLD_DEBUG_PREBINDING (?) and sure enough it says that it cannot use prebinding because at least one of the libraries (that was also installed by fink) it links against weren't enabled for prebinding. I tried a couple of things with update_prebinding and redo_prebinding without success, but I really don't understand how these commands are supposed to work. As an aside, I noticed that when X11 is running, then both vim and gvim start up almost instantly. Perhaps this is why many fink users wouldn't notice the problem. I also tried (without X11 running ) starting a second vim process while one is already running, but the second process is just as slow as the first. In the immediate term, can someone tell me how I can get vim (and other programs installed by fink) to use prebinding ? In the longer term, is it the case that package porters could/should use something like LDFLAGS = -prebinding by default ?
