Description of problem:
I am testing prelink-0.3.0-1 (starting with a prelink -ua ; prelink -a to start
from a clean situation). However now when I run prelink -qa I get some probably
unimportant errors, then an assertion failure. See below for the errors. I can
attempt simple debugging if required.

prelink: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4/mozilla-bin: Could not parse
`/usr/lib/mozilla-1.4/mozilla-bin: error while loading shared libraries:
libmozjs.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'
prelink: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4/regchrome: Could not parse
`/usr/lib/mozilla-1.4/regchrome: error while loading shared libraries:
libxpcom.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'
prelink: /usr/lib/openoffice/program/pkgchk.bin: Could not parse
`/usr/lib/openoffice/program/pkgchk.bin: error while loading shared libraries:
libsal.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory'
prelink: exec.c:890: prelink_exec: Assertion `dso->shdr[new_dynbss + 1].sh_type
!= 8 || data->d_buf == ((void *)0)' failed.
Aborted
Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2003-08-07 14:38:49 UTC 
Can you please add -vvv to the prelink options and retry?
If the assertion failure happens again, I'm interested in what program
or library was it currently prelinking (and a copy of that binary resp. library
as attachement).
Comment 2 Michael Young 2003-08-07 15:00:19 UTC 
Created attachment 93484 [details]
File prelink fails on.

The problem is in linking /usr/sbin/cpqarrayd which I have confirmed by running
									       

prelink -vvvq /usr/sbin/cpqarrayd
I am attaching this file.
Comment 3 Jakub Jelinek 2003-08-07 15:57:40 UTC 
Can you please pack all the libraries it uses as well?
tar cjhf /tmp/libs.tar.bz2 `ldd /usr/sbin/cpqarrayd  | awk ' { print $3 } '`
should do the job.
I have hard time reproducing it so far.
Comment 4 Jakub Jelinek 2003-08-08 08:24:23 UTC 
Please try ftp://people.redhat.com/jakub/prelink/0.3.0-2/
Comment 5 Michael Young 2003-08-08 09:43:54 UTC 
0.3.0-2 no longer gives the assertion failure. rpm -vVa reports 3 "prelinked
file was modified" errors, but I have a previous open bug (bug 89953) about this
problem with an earlier prelink which I will update accordingly.
