In message <200111201514.aa72952@salmon.maths.tcd.ie> Ian Dowse writes: : : I probably missed something important earlier in this thread, but : installing the debug versions of the modules seems like a bug, : since we don't install the debug version of the kernel. Adding : "DEBUG=-g" has always simply required more space in /usr/src, but : not affected the installed size. Does installing the debug versions : of modules make sense at all, or is it just hard to fix the makefiles : to stop it happening? I think it is an oversight. The kernel makefile has special code to build -g, but not install (by doing a strip --debug, or the moral equivalent) the -g image. Likely we should do the same thing for modules, now that I think about it. Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
