MGA8-64 MATE on Acer Aspire 5253 No installation issues No wiki, no previous updates. MCC reads "PatchELF is a simple utility for modifying an existing ELF executable or library. It can change the dynamic loader ("ELF interpreter") of an executable and change the RPATH of an executable or library." That does nor sound like something an everyday user (or a QA person at that) would need to know. At least it does nt seem to harm my system, so I propose to OK this on clean install.
