I asked about this upstream and the consensus was that stripping
binaries compiled with the gc toolchain should work and does work as far
as anyone knows: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/golang-
dev/ABppMOjYP6w . So the advice to avoid stripping Go binaries is
officially rescinded. Report breakages!
Gccgo is a different matter: binaries built with gccgo must not be
stripped. We could open a dialogue upstream as to how this requirement
could be lifted, but this has not happened yet TTBOMK.
** Summary changed:
- Go binaries cannot be stripped
+ gccgo binaries cannot be stripped
** Changed in: golang (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Fix Released
** Package changed: gcc-4.9 (Ubuntu) => gccgo-6 (Ubuntu)
