Because prelinking changes the file in different ways on different systems. And, as I read this, your verify failure *and* the slowness are tied to that message you got from rpm -V: it's not rpm saying that, but the prelink command it runs to "un-prelink" for verification, telling you that the prelink data for the one that isn't acting right *is wrong*. The slowness would then be because at every symbol lookup it's hitting the prelink failure and then looking up the symbol the hard way, one at a time. (That is, working prelink is an optimization, but *failed* prelink is a pessimization, compared to non-prelinking. System V R2/3 and Mac OS X prelinking have the same optimization/pessimization issues, BTW.) The likely fix here is to read up on the "prelink" command and see how to fix or remove the broken prelink information from /sbin/mkfs.ext3. - -- brandon s. allbery [linux,solaris,freebsd,perl] [email protected] system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] [email protected] electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.10 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkwsPgUACgkQIn7hlCsL25XvVgCgw4eFwR08T+pko8/tATmQyLgB 7dAAoL6BK6qQO/NYITD1sC0xYVk0d9yD =YZfL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
