Good point. Yes, all executables and libraries I was missing in ldconfig
--print-cache do show up with prelink -p.

Except libjvm.so itself... Apparently prelink is convinced that really
is never used. hmmm. Apparently all wrapper "java" executables only
dlopen it, so it is never directly linked, and prelink doesn't cache it.

But except for that special case, prelink -p is a good substitute.

Cheers,

Mark
