I defend the hypothesis:
Users who cannot find out how to remove debug info from executable are
unlike to become contributors (giving good advice in forums, providing
good bug reproducible bug report with example programs and back
traces, patches, writing good example programs for the wiki,
contributing documentation). They are more likely to inhibit the
advance of Lazarus by giving misinformation in forums, cluttering the
bug tracker with hard the reproduce bug reports, etc.
I understand you POV but i think more users means more contributors. And
espeacially idiotic users are easy to impress :p
This solution has 4 benefits and it can be an simple Option when
building Lazarus "strip debuginfo from LCL files" that is on per
default.
Who want to debug lcl code (sure only a very samll percentage) can
just deactivate it, rebuild Lazarus and good is.
Its an real good ihea also the debugger dont find a lot of fpc .inc
files in lcl code thats also solved with it.
Yes, patches are welcome.
Ill wait some weeks if Fabio posts an patch, when not ill try.
