I was curious about the meaning of prelink USE flag for wine and, then, I looked to its description: prelink : Run prelink on DLLs during build; For versions before wine-1.7.55 or hardened, do not disable if you do not know what this means as it can break things at runtime It seems, then, that it should be enabled by default as, otherwise, most users will get it disabled... that seems not wanted :/ Thanks
As the description indicates, only versions < 1.7.55 want this. Starting with version 1.7.55, wine implements its own internal linking solution instead of requiring prelink. Hardened users can attempt to force some extra support by using prelink (according to a user report). As such, prelink is not used anymore. Obviously, 1.8.1 is > 1.7.55, so the use description does not apply. Please let me know if that isn't clear.
Ah ok, sorry for the noise, I guess I got confused by the "do not disable if you do not know what this means as it can break things at runtime" after the comma that looked to me like "more general" My fault ;)
