    binary relocation

    Hi

    Klik claims to do binary patching to relocate binaries. I'm curious as to how this is done. The "install" script doesn't seem to do anything.

    Thanks

    Basically, klik changes the absolute paths inside the applications into relative paths and sets some symlinks accordingly. This is a very tricky business and we are working on a cleaner solution using filesystem "overlays". See http://klik.atekon.de/wiki/index.php/Plash for that.

    Best regards,
    probono
