I'm not sure we want to address stripping on every package. What I do is periodically go through and strip all libraries and remove .la files. Stripping is really optional for the user, even though most will not want the debug symbols. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
