(2) How do I tell automated cron jobs NOT to interfere with
installed
binaries?
I can't comment on the other issues, but for this question, you
probably want to drop a file into /etc/prelink.conf.d to "blacklist"
the files you don't need prelinked. Based on the example that's there
(nss-prelink.conf), you want to include lines like this:
-b /pattern/that/matches/file*
I once had a program that stopped working after prelink ran, but
that's just because it checked its own md5sum and then "called home"
to see if there was a newer version available. I've never seen it
actually break anything about the executable itself.
