Description Jan Kratochvil 2011-09-27 13:34:17 UTC 
Description of problem:
It is built with -gdwarf-2 while Fedora already uses -gdwarf-3 or -gdwarf-4.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xulrunner-debuginfo-1.9.2.22-1.fc14.x86_64
It affects also F15, F16 and Rawhide.

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
readelf -wi /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/xulrunner-1.9.2/libxul.so.debug
readelf -wi /usr/lib/debug/bin/bash.debug

Actual results:
   Version:       2
   Version:       3

Expected results:
   Version:       3
   Version:       3

Additional info:
It probably affects also the firefox package etc.

xulrunner-mozconfig-debuginfo:export CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -gdwarf-2"
xulrunner-mozconfig-debuginfo:export CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -gdwarf-2"
 - this is wrong, you should use %optflags.

Sorry, we can't fix that. We are using Mozilla's crash reporter and Mozilla still use -gdwarf-2 so we have to keep that.
