I noticed on my Fedora 13 box that in the RPM macro %__global_cflags that -frecord-gcc-switches is missing, which is a nifty compiler feature that will record the flags passed to gcc in a section in the object file, thus aiding in the "how in the world was this compiled?" problem. An example:
[jstan...@hawtness ~]$ gcc -O2 -frecord-gcc-switches -g -o hello hello.c [jstan...@hawtness ~]$ readelf -p .GCC.command.line hello String dump of section '.GCC.command.line': [ 0] hello.c [ 8] -mtune=generic [ 17] -g [ 1a] -O2 [ 1e] -frecord-gcc-switches What do folks think about adding this as a default? Any reason not to (other than possibly a few bytes extra in the object files)? -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
