Bug#315521: closed by Kenshi Muto [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Re: Bug#315521: cupsys: DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip produces stripped /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops)
Hi, From: Kenshi Muto [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian CUPS has provided debug symbols (includes hpgltops also) as cupsys-dbg package, since 1.2.2-2. Although this is a different way from your question, it's more convenient than rebuilding a package. Convenience probably depends on what one is used to but that is no problem, I'm willing to learn new things. Previously I've done $ cd /local/lindi/debian/debian-cupsys $ DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip debug noopt fakeroot apt-get --build source cupsys $ sudo dpkg -i cupsys*.deb $ gdb usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops (gdb) break main (gdb) run to get source level debuggability (I've used the approach for very many packages and even written a script to do it automatically). With this cupsys-dbg approach I seem to be able to get the same effect by doing $ cd /local/lindi/debian/debian-cupsys $ sudo apt-get install cupsys-dbg $ apt-get source cupsys $ gdb /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops (gdb) directory /local/lindi/debian/debian-cupsys/cupsys-1.2.7 (gdb) symbol-file /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops (gdb) break main (gdb) run Does this look correct? best regards, Timo Lindfors -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#315521: cupsys: DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip produces stripped /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops
Package: cupsys Version: 1.1.23-10 Severity: wishlist Steps to reproduce: 1. DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip debug noopt CFLAGS=-g -O0 fakeroot apt-get --build source cupsys 2. sudo dpkg -i cupsys_1.1.23*.deb 3. file /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops Expected results: 1. hpgltops should be unstripped and contain debugging symbols Actual results: 1. hpgltops is stripped and thus difficult to debug with gdb. file outputs the following: /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped -- System Information Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux phoenix 2.4.29met2 #1 SMP Fri Jan 21 08:46:57 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=fi_FI -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
