At least that's the way the kernel .src package behaves Found the cause. And your observation above seems to be correct. There is a file in /usr/lib/rpm called rpmrc. That file has the compile flags that rpmbuild uses. There is a -g on every one. So anything that is built by rpmbuild with a default Fedora system will have debug information compiled into the binary. Maybe the packager does this and then strips the debugging information into a separate package, and uses the stripped binary as the official binary package? To change that, cp the file to ~/.rpmrc and then edit and remove all the architectures except the one you are interested in (yours!). Duplicate the line, and comment out one of them. On the other, remove the -g from the end of the line. rpmbuild -bb will then compile the package using optimization. If you ever want to compile a package for debugging, comment the optimization line and uncomment the debug line. In that case you might want to change -g to -ggdb if you are going to use gdb as a debugger. This seems to be compiling faster as well. I suppose that is a result of not needing to add debugging information. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
