[Bug 528851] New: rpm: split mono debuginfo ...
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=528851 Summary: rpm: split mono debuginfo ... Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mmeeks@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- AFAICS the '.mdb' files that many mono packages install are (I think) just debugging info, that we should split out into -debuginfo files, and not waste space on eg. Live-CDs with. My-first-patch-to-find-debuginfo.sh attached. It seems to work for me (for beagle-1).

I assume the prospect of more space on the various Live-CDs is generally interesting to people too. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But ... +# Find mono debugging data +if [ -x "/usr/bin/mono" ] ; then + echo "find in $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib" + find $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib -type f \( -name "*.dll.mdb" -or -name "*.exe.mdb" \) | sed "s|$RPM_BUILD_ROOT||" >> "$LISTFILE" +fi + so you are special-casing packages that have /usr/bin/mono. Why not simply manually add a Package: debuginfo .. %files debuginfo .. which is possible now (well, not mono-debuginfo as that exists already and you can't add to it - I didn't see that would be necessary yet). Likely what you want is something like mono-runtime-debuginfo anyway (or wherever that pieces are). The proposed solution to finddebuginfo.sh is a hack. If more packages would provide debuginformation in a mono format then if a mono build environment is present there needs to be a way to identify a *.dll.mdb or *.exe.mdb file as proper debuginformation and the packaging should be done for all packages not just the one containing /usr/bin/mono. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

so you are special-casing packages that have /usr/bin/mono. Why not simply manually add a [ .spec file change]
oh - well, this is not very simple when you have to add it to a lot of packages (60 or so) - and in general, some pleasant way to drop (known to be) debuginfo information automatically into -debuginfo files is surely more pleasant ? This presumably is the thinking underlying a central find-debuginfo.sh script. The check for /usr/bin/mono - is not intended to make this specific to a single package - but to make it specific to those packages that have a BuildRequires of mono - ie. to reduce any chance of false positives with people calling their files "foo.dll.mdb" but them not being either a DLL or a debuginfo file ;-) I tend to think that is pretty unlikely, and in these cases they would want those files in a -debuginfo file anyway - so we could easily remove that. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Is there a way to have mono say "yes, this is proper debuginfo for me!"? Like mono --verify-this-is-debuginfo /path/to/the/file ? Does the mono debugger find the debuginformation if it is copied to the /usr/lib/debug/ shadow tree? I see the debuginfo files do not end in .debug, so at the moment they wouldn't be picked up by rpm, but that would be easy to fix. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
