Why? Shouldn't stripping be the default? Having "some" information in the binary isn't very helpful anyway. I agree that package manager need something to disable stripping if it needs to happen in another stage of package build, but that's no argument for having it off on default. A argument for stripping as default: A lot of people don't know what's the right thing to do in most cases ... so the "best" option should be taken. and the best options are IMHO: - debug build -> all information - release build -> best possible performance/size/... > > The option does not apply to Windows's configure.exe because you're not > supposed to make install there. _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
