Yes I understand but why loose so many new users?
All the programmers come from Delphi reports this issue and only a little subset of them check for a solution on Google.
Others are lost!

So what? It is their loss. If they cannot even find out how to do this, how can we expect them to become contributors? So, it even is a nice selection mechanism for new users. (OK, maybe I am overreaction now). Remember Lazarus is not a commercial product that needs users to survive, it is a open source project that needs contributors (for the LCL, the IDE, for documentation, for testing (which needs good backtraces), for writing and porting components) to survive. I don't expect users who cannot find out how to put the checkboxes in the compiler options dialog (yes, we can improve the IDE in this area), to be much of an help.


But if a solution exists why do not use it?

I do not understand! :(


Because it excludes the use of debug information for users that want that information. Removing it is trivial, adding it much harder.
