I counted around 130 packages under pkg-gnome, so it's simply not something applicable on all of GNOME as is. Of course we can continue adding -dbg packages for the important stuff, it just doesn't scale. (And that's only for pkg-gnome!) Perhaps the trick used by dbg libs to store only the debugging symbols themselves can be used on all packages (without splitting them). Ross seems to think these would be good enough debugging symbols, and this would: - removes the need of 2 builds - removes the pain of maintaining dependencies but I have no idea of the size impact. -- Loïc Minier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Current Earth status: NOT DESTROYED -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
