Does prelink still provide any benefits in wine?
The package is being retired in Fedora so starting with 1.7.48 the wine package will no longer be compiled with it. A few applications I have run under 1.7.48 still function, but I am curious to know the possible failure cases.
We use it to enforce a constant load address of our libraries in all processes. This is needed for things like the Steam overlay to work. If you build Wine without prelinking kernel32.dll, all Steam games will fail to start.
