No need to answer these queries.  Everything is explained in [1]
above.

Bingo.

If I drop this feature (I turned it on for tracking a bug) will the
/usr/lib64/debug tree go away or must I delete it manually.

Also are there any other large subtrees I need to purge?

thanks for the help.

Do you have the splitdebug [1] FEATURE enabled?

[gentoo-user] what is /usr/lib64/debug ?

2011-08-18 Thread Allan Gottlieb
/usr/lib64/debug seems to have in it a duplicate (at least as far as
directory names are concerned) of much of /usr/lib64.

For example

ajglap lib64 # /bin/pwd
/usr/lib64/debug/usr/lib64
ajglap lib64 # du -s * | sort -n | tail -10
34020   mesa
53148   gstreamer-0.10
155992  icedtea6
161360  llvm
208932  qt4
304016  xulrunner-devel-2.0
308880  xulrunner-2.0
618408  firefox
669000  libwebkitgtk-1.0.so.0.7.2.debug
1087848 libreoffice
ajglap lib64 # 

Is this correct?  My system is ~amd64

thanks,
allan
