Description dunerkahl 2009-06-20 14:41:45 UTC
wine built by the gentoo ebuild doesn't provide debugging symbols. Wine developers say when building wine from source, debugging symbols are available by default, in gentoo's wine ebuild, debugging symbols are turned of.
I think the wine ebuild needs a debug USE-flag, when it is enabled, wine will be compiled with debugging symbols.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Building wine by emerge wine
2.launch an application that crashes with wine
3.verify that no debugging symbols occure in the stack trace

Actual Results:  
debugging symbols are missing

Expected Results:  
debugging symbols should be displayed

Portage-built software by default gets stripped before merging, refer to http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml for the instructions to get debug symbols.
