And I was saying that the 8GB of git, if a bug in git, not with gdb3. I know gdb3 makes unstripped executables bigger and don't deny that. I do take offence with you saying that the root cause is -ggdb3, when it's actually git being buggy. And as you have seen, instead of fixing git, people are removing -ggdb3 :( regards, Koen -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iD8DBQFMQZ9yMkyGM64RGpERAvrYAJ0XYJZ40fAfTpWs5eCdEuWZlidzQgCgnDiw sWRwYL9QbYfPDgdyp47pwzk= =hKZ3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
