  Yup - anytime you upgrade/re-install, you'll need to run prelink again.

  To be safe, run it like so:  'prelink -vaf'

OPTIONS
       -v --verbose
              Verbose mode.  Print the  virtual  address  slot  assignment  to
              libraries  and  print  what binary or library is currently being
              prelinked.

      -a --all
              Prelink all binaries and dependant libraries found in  directory
              hierarchies specified in /etc/prelink.conf.  Normally only bina-
              ries specified from command line and their  dependant  libraries
              are prelinked.

      -f --force
              Force re-prelinking even for already prelinked objects for which
              no dependencies changed. This option causes new virtual  address
              space  slots  to  be  assigned to all libraries.  Normally, only
              binaries or libraries which are either  not  prelinked  yet,  or
              some of their dependencies changed, are prelinked.

  Do you have an /etc/prelink.conf?

  Here's an example:

-l /bin
-l /sbin
-l /usr/bin
-l /usr/sbin
-l /lib
-l /usr/lib
-h /opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.03/jre/lib
-h /usr/X11R6/lib
-h /usr/games/lib
-h /usr/kde/3.2/lib
-h /usr/lib/fltk-1.1
-h /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2
-h /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.3
-h /usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib
-h /usr/local/lib
-h /usr/qt/3/lib
-h /usr/local/bin
-h /opt/bin
-h /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.3
-h /opt/ati/bin
-h /usr/X11R6/bin
-h /opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.03/bin
-h /opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.03/jre/bin
-h /opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2.03/jre/javaws
-h /usr/qt/3/bin
-h /usr/kde/3.2/bin
-h /usr/games/bin
