It may well be true that the 8GB total folder size is due to a deficiency in git. But, if the individual binaries are coming out at 101MB, that's still an increase of something like 10000% compared to an equivalent build without debugging. Obviously it's up to angstrom to make its own policies, but I do wonder how many of its users actually find themselves debugging -native packages on a regular basis and, for those that do, how much benefit they are really gaining from -ggdb3 versus plain -g. p. _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
