|
|
<EM>> Hi Kevin,
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>>
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> I think if we add that option we will get in trouble with our error reports.
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> I see no great problem with the not stripped libraries, it does cost a bit
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> of harddiskspace, not much else. But I see the problems we get because a lot
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> of users will install the stripped libs and we are not able to do debugging.
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>>
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> If someone really needs it, it should be no problem for him to change
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> the Makefile and add a "-s", - although I do not see a reason at all to
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> create stripped libs.
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<P>The Debian policy is to install libraries and binaries stripped.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
A separated version of libraries may also be installed with debug
|
|
<BR>
|
|
options. Therefore, I am required to install libraries and binaries
|
|
<BR>
|
|
stripped.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P><P>The GNU standards also require an install-strip target. You are not
|
|
<BR>
|
|
required to use the GNU standards, of course. But the reason for the
|
|
<BR>
|
|
GNU standards is that they are often useful. Here's quote for the GNU
|
|
<BR>
|
|
standards which explains the reasons for the targets.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>`install-strip'
|
|
<BR>
|
|
Like `install', but strip the executable files while installing
|
|
<BR>
|
|
them. In many cases, the definition of this target can be very
|
|
<BR>
|
|
simple:
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> install-strip:
|
|
<BR>
|
|
$(MAKE) INSTALL_PROGRAM='$(INSTALL_PROGRAM) -s' \
|
|
<BR>
|
|
install
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P> Normally we do not recommend stripping an executable unless you
|
|
<BR>
|
|
are sure the program has no bugs. However, it can be reasonable
|
|
<BR>
|
|
to install a stripped executable for actual execution while saving
|
|
<BR>
|
|
the unstripped executable elsewhere in case there is a bug.
|
|
<BR>
