Description Ivan Zakharyaschev 2016-11-10 21:57:52 MSK
prelink-0.4.4-alt2

Now the package contains a daily cron task.

This may be unwanted if someone just wants to use the utilities from this package.

Suggestion:

make 2 packages with new names: prelink-utils and prelink-crontab;

and make prelink-crontab provide prelink (the old name, not break systems on upgrades).

There is one user of the utilities:

apt> whatdepends prelink
prelink-0.4.4-alt2
  rpmrebuild-un_prelink-2.9-alt2
    Depends: prelink
apt>

rpmrebuild-un_prelink (built from rpmrebuild) should be changed to require just the utils.

Seems to be done in 0.4.4-alt3.
