But I just tried for myself - I see the -g2 (multiple times), but after building, stripping takes place, even with the one-time FEATURES=-nostrip emerge -1 libxml2 approach: strip: i686-pc-linux-gnu-strip --strip-unneeded -R .comment usr/lib/libxml2.so.2.6.31 usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libxml2mod.so usr/bin/xmllint usr/bin/xmlcatalog usr/lib/libxml2.a usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libxml2mod.a You might want to have a look at <http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml>, this explains how to get debug information. There is a splitdebug FEATURE which is better than using nostrip. But I still do not know why it doesn't work for you. I'd look at the emerge output and check what happened to the libraries when they were built, just after the "Completed installing" message. Wonko -- [email protected] mailing list
