Created attachment 208448 [details, diff] amsn-0.98-nostrip.patch Patch for solving this
Pacho, your patch is good but it's probably better to use sed because it's less space consuming. Patch are mostly used for complex changes. The sed command is: sed -i -e "s/LDFLAGS += -s/LDFLAGS += /" Makefile.in || die "sed failed"
I fixed that in 0.98.1-r1.
OK, thanks for the tip :-) I attached a patch because maybe upstream would want to apply it, since seems that this behavior changed recently :-/ Thanks a lot for comitting the fix :-)
