[Bug 284030] New: xine-lib not properly stripped
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=284030 Summary: xine-lib not properly stripped Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: mhopf@novell.com ReportedBy: dmueller@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de xine-lib is not split into a debuginfo package (and therefore not symtab stripped) because it is a nosource package. can it be split into a xine-lib and an -internal.spec file (which can be identical except for the NoSource line), so that debuginfo creation works for xine-lib? this would save about 550kb (unpacked size) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

--- Comment #3 from Matthias Hopf
Does anyone at SUSE/Novell (internal) use this package for e.g. dvd viewing ?
No, but it *is* used for ogg/vorbis/tarkin. You can also look at the xine-lib specfile to find out how to build it uncrippled.
Everyone who needs playing dvds will rpm -e xine-lib --nodeps and than go to packman (or will installing mplayer from source).
I understand that we need to discuss package layout with packman, it's just this takes time, and there are more pressing issues. It's not due to NIH-syndrom, it just takes a lot of time. It would be much easier, if users would only have to install a single package from packman instead of replacing the library package.
So, saving 550kb maybe will create some space on inst-media, but removing all crappy multi-media packages and saying: "because of legal we don't ship any multimedia packages anymore, please look outside" would be the more suitable solution.
We currently can't remove xine completely. Debuginfo should be doable. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
