Aide report triggers prelink errors on Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • When running AIDE with prelink installed, prelink will sometimes still complain about dependencies even after PRELINKING is set to no in the /etc/sysconfig/prelink configuration file.
  • Even after disabling prelink and unlinking everything prelink -au, some binaries look like they are still prelinked.

    • The warning looks like the following:

      /usr/sbin/prelink: PATH_TO_BINARY : at least one of file's dependencies has changed since prelinking
      Error on exit of prelink child process
      

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7
  • prelink
