Do you see the inconsistency is this tirade?  You don't know what it is
for and nevertheless condemn it as useless.

If you don't want/need/like the advantages prelink provides you are free
to disable it.

If you don't want the extra security re-prelinking provides, comment out
the PRELINK_FULL_TIME_INTERVAL definition in the config file.

For the majority of people (especially those who do not follow rawhide
daily) prelink is of big benefit.
