Package: libelfg0 Version: 0.8.0-1 The new glibc 2.3-1 in debian sid glibc cvs (and soon sid itself) will allow prelinking of binaries. This will require an updated libelfg0 package. You need to upgrade libelfg0 to

On debian ppc sid, prelinking works prefectly under glibc 2.3-1 with the above requested changes. Can we please get a new package for libelfg0 out ASAP. Thanks.
