Description Aoife Moloney 2025-07-24 18:18:50 UTC

This is a tracking bug for Change: Let's Preserve Debuginfo in Static Libraries
For more details, see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/StaticLibraryPreserveDebuginfo

RPMs supplying static libraries should build with useful & preserved debuginfo.
Let's stop stripping them by default, and rely on new debugedit to process
static library debuginfo in a way that's useful for full debugging.

If you encounter a bug related to this Change, please do not comment here. Instead create a new bug and set it to block this bug.

All needed debugedit and redhat-rpm-config updates have rolled out to rawhide on July 22, so are already part of the mass-rebuild currently underway.

Work related to identifying other packages that currently manually strip things will be done out-of-band (linked to this bug# for completeness but not as genuine blockers).
