For the developers going to look into it, what you have to look out for, to find what is stripping the files, is one of these conditions: - explicit "strip" command run on the produced files; - "install -s" command to install the binary files; - "-Wl,-s" flag passed during linking Remove the "strip" commands, remove the "-s" option at install, and remove "-Wl,-s" and the problem should be gone. Thanks, Diego
Does it take an year to get rid of the "install -s" call or is this package unmaintained?
