The debug eclass uses RESTRICT="nostrip" when it infact should do something in the lines of FEATURE+=NOSTRIP. The idea here being that we actually want to keep the debug symbols we just spend good CPU cycles on making. ------------ # Copyright 1999-2003 Gentoo Technologies, Inc. # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 # $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/eclass/debug.eclass,v 1.18 2003/02/16 04:26:21 vapier Exp $ # # Author: Spider # # A general DEBUG eclass to ease inclusion of debugging information # and to remove "bad" flags from CFLAGS # Debug ECLASS ECLASS="debug" INHERITED="$INHERITED $ECLASS" # Do _NOT_ strip symbols in the build!

if you wish to change the -syntax- of portage's handling of builds, you file this in the wrong place. if you think that RESTRICT="nostrip" "doesnt work" then I'd want a testcase, since for all I can tell the current logic works RESTRICT= means add the following restrictions to the build. that means, you add exceptions to the default behaviours. closing this as invalid. if you have a testcase where the current doesn't work, reopen with that. if you wish to change the portage syntax for RESTRICT, file a new bug where you are a bit clearer on that point.
