vadi2What does this at the end of compilation accomplish? Test binary integrity?22:45
vadi2{ test -n "" && DESTDIR="" || DESTDIR=.; } && test $(gdb --version | sed -e 's,[^0-9]\+\([0-9]\)\.\([0-9]\).*,\1\2,;q') -gt 72 && gdb --nx --batch --quiet -ex 'set confirm off' -ex "save gdb-index $DESTDIR" -ex quit 'mudlet' && test -f mudlet.gdb-index && objcopy --add-section '.gdb_index=mudlet.gdb-index' --set-section-flags '.gdb_index=readonly' 'mudlet' 'mudlet' && rm -f mudlet.gdb-index || true22:45
vadi2It seems to be a new thing, I suspect it came via updates.22:45
tsimpsonvadi2: it inserts gdb debugging information in the resulting binary23:11
vadi2Oh23:11
vadi2Where can I find out why / how does this change things?23:11
tsimpsonit's why do you need to change it?23:14
tsimpsonoops, I mean it's for debugging... why do you want to change it?23:14
vadi2I don't want to change it, I want to find out what does it change from previously23:14
vadi2Since you know -g before seemed enough?23:15
tsimpsonit's just makes debugging with gdb a bit more efficient23:15
