Hello,
While fixing mesa build which was slow due to a lot off debug stuff
(assert()), I've added -Db_ndebug=true into the %meson macro.
This seemed like good approach because in Fedora we should not use debug
bits in runtime (not related to debuginfo). However this caused some
breakage in some packages like libratbag which was relying on assert() in
tests. This should be really fixed in affected packages..
I am not convinced that we should revert meson change.. Let me know if you
think otherwise and why.
IMO if asserts cause a slow build in mesa, mesa should disable asserts.
Pushing this into the build system means you're changing the behaviour of
every package build with meson. I rely on asserts in several packages for
paths that must not happen - removing those asserts means instead of
crashing we now have undefined behaviour, probably leaking things.
I agree.
Fedora should follow upstream defaults here, like most other
distributions. Most upstreams leave assertions enabled.
I agree as well. Please don't override -Db_ndebug in distro-wide %meson
macro and instead move the override to mesa packaging if it's needed there.
