Eggcups and the prelink problem !

If you get an error message regarding eggcups after you have installed up2date, yum, or apt updates, or if you see strange things happening with your Gnome desktop, open a terminal and type:

su -

Hit enter. Type in your root password and hit enter. Type:

yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update prelink

When you see:

Dependencies Resolved
Transaction Listing:
Update: prelink.i386 0:0.3.3-0.fc3
Is this ok [y/N]:

Type:

y

Hit enter. The prelink package will be installed. When it is finished type:

su -c /etc/cron.daily/prelink

Hit enter. Wait until the prompt reappears. This may take a while as the prelinks are being updated. When the prompt reappears reboot your machine.
