SystemTap, crash, makedumpfile need debug symbols. Indeed, commenting CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO option disables building -dbg package. Just what I needed! > Maybe the relatively new "bindeb-pkg" target is closer to what you > want? bindeb-pkg doesn't disable building -dbg package, but it helps in another way. When this target is used only .deb package are built, all .tar.gz archives, .changes and stuff like this are disabled. It also speeds up building a little, thanks! -- Best regards, Aleksander Alekseev pgpC8tkenxXaX.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies

How to disable building of -dbg Debian package?
Hello. I'm building Linux kernel like this: ``` cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) ./.config make olddefconfig make -j4 deb-pkg LOCALVERSION=-custom ``` Resulting files are (for 4.7.0 kernel): ``` 966694 linux-firmware-image-4.7.0-custom_4.7.0-custom-1_amd64.deb 10316460 linux-headers-4.7.0-custom_4.7.0-custom-1_amd64.deb 45639036 linux-image-4.7.0-custom_4.7.0-custom-1_amd64.deb 471400164 linux-image-4.7.0-custom-dbg_4.7.0-custom-1_amd64.deb 851664 linux-libc-dev_4.7.0-custom-1_amd64.deb ``` Compilation takes about an hour and most of this time is spent on creating a -dbg package which I don't install anyway. Frankly I don't think this package is very useful since Linux kernel can't be built with -O0 option [1]. Is it possible to disable building of this package?
