RE: rebase problem for cygcurl-2.dll still existing?!

I've got my non-stripped package coming. The non-stripped DLL is about 350 kb larger, although after bzipping, it's only about 80 kb of additional network download (total of 546 kb in the .tar.bz2 file now). Many thanks to those of you (Jason, Robert) who helped explain rebase to those of us w

On one hand, I have CGF asking for stripping of all EXE/DLLs, to save on disk space, and also download speed for our dial-up friends (I assume). On the other hand I have Stipe noticing that his PHP package (if memory serves) can't successfully rebase my cygcurl-2 dll, and therefore doesn't work

Kevin, I guess I know what the problem is about your packaged cygcurl-2.dll. In both current packages 7.9.6-1 and 7.9.8-1 you have packaged a stripped DLL. It seems when you rebase a stripped DLL the resulting DLL is corrupt. Hence any DLL inside a binary package should *not* be stripped to be
