as far as I remember the prelink maintainer once enabled sparc in this=20
package, then noticed it doesn'tw ork and disabled it again. You somehow=20
installedit during the priod where this package existed ;)

We check whether prelink is installed before asking the question, so...

Yes, it should work. Yes, it probably is a bug in prelink since prelink isn=
't=20
built anymore for sparc and this has to have reasons ;)

I think we can close this bug then, objections?
