gdb-add-index vs eu-strip -g


I've just released elfutils 0.149 and it's now on the queues for Fedora 14
and for updates to 12 and 13.  In prior versions, eu-strip -g failed to
recognize .gdb_index and so would leave it in the stripped file rather than
moving it to the .debug file (or discarding it, without -f).  So you might
want to put "Conflicts: elfutils < 0.149" in the Fedora gdb.spec for
versions providing gdb-add-index.  It may not matter to bother, but it
seems like a good idea for the Fedora 14 rpm.

Note that ordinarily Fedora rpm builds use eu-strip without -g, so most
builds already done should not have been affected.  Only packages that do
special magic in their .spec files to request eu-strip -g should have been
affected (glibc does this).


Thanks,
Roland
