What is wrong? Mayhaps nothing's wrong, but ye just looked over an important, iften-used aspect, called stripping, see below. >And how can I understand if there is an error in the compilation? >the compiler is giving some warning messages but I do not know >which one is critical or important. Well, for truly to be able to detect this, you need at least some C knowledge and some compiler experience. There's no easy reference otherwise. >reactor:/usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/edquota#ls -la >total 33 >drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Aug 17 01:22 . >drwxr-xr-x 130 root wheel 2560 Aug 16 23:27 .. >-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 15112 Aug 17 01:22 edquota >-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 2315 Aug 17 01:22 edquota.8.gz >-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 10916 Aug 17 01:22 edquota.o >reactor:/usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/edquota#ls -la /usr/sbin/edquota >-r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 12248 Aug 17 21:36 /usr/sbin/edquota >reactor:/usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/edquota# $ file /usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/edquota $ file /usr/sbin/edquota My guess is that the latter is stripped, meaning that the debugging symbols have been removed.
