texmaker's debuginfo package is useless: $ rpm -qlp http://fedoraproject.org/extras/development/i386/debug/texmaker-debuginfo-1.3-1.fc6.i386.rpm (contains no files) More info: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Debuginfo
Thanks for this bug report, it's really a packaging error. i had not been careful enough in properly checking exactly what's installed. texmaker actually doesn't produce any architecture dependent library, so it should have been noarch. Will correct this asap. Deji
/usr/bin/texmaker most certainly is not architecture independent: texmaker: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, stripped
ok, i'm not sure what's happening here now. I noticed the qt4' qmake option of a NO_DEBUG option in the old build log,can that be the source of the problem? (http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/logs/fedora-development-extras/9949-texmaker-1.3-1.fc6/i386/build.log). Anyway, I'll try and go revert the 'noarch' changes.
The problem can be easily seen in the build log: strip "/var/tmp/texmaker-1.3-1.fc6-root-mockbuild/usr/bin/texmaker" Get rid of that wherever it comes from (and remove noarch) and that should be it.
Appears to be qt4's fault, see bug #193602 Suggestions, workarounds, comments welcome.
(In reply to comment #5) > Appears to be qt4's fault, see bug #193602 > > Suggestions, workarounds, comments welcome. Yeah, and I've just worked around it in texmaker's spec by passing QMAKE_STRIP= to qmake4. "qmake4 -unix QMAKE_STRIP= PREFIX=u%{buildroot}%{_prefix} texmaker.pro"
That's a much better workaround than the other idea(s) I had been entertaining... thanks. Or... another option is to set (in qt4) the default valute of QMAKE_STRIP to be empty. Opinions?
I've been wondering too, why is the default value 'strip'. If doesn't have side-effects, please go ahead and make the default null in qt4.
