That problem already exists today, adding the fingerprint doesn't make it worse. IMHO the dump file should really only be searched in exec-directory. If you want to find it somewhere else, just pass --dump-file (or a new option --dump-directory). > I agree we should add the fingerprint, but I think it should be added to > the `emacs` executable (so the executable-dump can easily find it). And installing the emacs executable in exec-directory?
