That does not work nor does USER_CLASSES_remove = " image-prelink "

"image-prelink" is removed from the variable but pre-linking is still 
affecting the image.

bitbake -e | grep ^USER_CLASSES
USER_CLASSES="buildstats image-mklibs"


I noticed that IMAGE_PREPROCESS_COMMAND variable has prelink in it.

bitbake -e | grep ^IMAGE_PREPROCESS_COMMAND
IMAGE_PREPROCESS_COMMAND=" mklibs_optimize_image;  prelink_image; "


If I override USER_CLASSES like above, then pre-link is not present in 
either variable.

you really want me to fix the prelinking on ppc64 ;)


If anyone has any pointers on where to look, let me know.
