Package: debhlper
Version: 7.4.3
Severity: wishlist
Version 2.9.27 of libc6 has the following item in
changelog.Debian.gz:
Strip *.o files manually (dh_strip does not do it) to prevent
leakage of the build directory.
According to
http://lists.debian.org/debian-glibc/2009/11/msg00089.html,
the code is:
find . -name \*crt\*.o -exec objcopy
--only-keep-debug '{}' ../$(libc)-dbg/usr/lib/debug/'{}'
';' || true;
find . -name \*crt\*.o -exec objcopy
--add-gnu-debuglink=../$(libc)-dbg/usr/lib/debug/'{}'
'{}' ';' || true);
find debian/$(curpass) -name \*crt\*.o -exec
strip --strip-debug --remove-section=.comment
--remove-section=.note --strip-unneeded '{}' ';' || true;
Is it possible to have similar lines in dh_strip?

From the man page:
Since it is very hard to automatically guess if a file is a module, and
hard to determine how to strip a module, dh_strip does not currently
deal with stripping binary modules such as .o files.
If you look at the .o files present on any debian system,
including ones like /usr/lib/gcrt1.o from libc6-dev, you
will notice that many of them are not stripped. Unless you
can prove that stripping all of them would not break them,
it is not appropriate for dh_strip to strip them.
