Description Ville Skyttä 2005-10-16 19:03:30 UTC 
The LD definition in %build of notecase is broken, should be using eg \$(CXX) 
instead of $CXX so that stuff isn't substituted by the shell. 
 
But even that doesn't help with getting a sane debuginfo package out of this, 
%install builds the binary again (!), this time without the customized LD (so 
-s ends up in the linker command line and debuginfo is lost).

It's in need of a version update anyways, so two birds with one stone...
Comment 2 Ville Skyttä 2005-10-30 07:21:19 UTC 
I took a look at 1.1.2-1 in CVS, and it still results in a useless debuginfo 
package.  Additionally, the build does not honor $RPM_OPT_FLAGS.
Comment 3 Ville Skyttä 2006-12-17 14:10:35 UTC 
The useless debuginfo package has been reintroduced in 1.1.9-2:

$ rpm -qlp
http://fedoraproject.org/extras/development/i386/debug/notecase-debuginfo-1.1.9-2.fc6.i386.rpm
(contains no files)
