Hi,
an interesting discussion came up in the Python Maint team recently,
about not shipping python3-debug and python2-debug.
On the Chesterton's fence principle [0], I'd would like to know why
are
we building and shipping them before we have a discussion about
their
removal to save build time and remove packaging cruft.
Anyone has an idea? Those packages are meant to debug Python, yet
all
people I know who do that, build they own Python for that purpose
(often
from the master branch).
I think I used debug builds for this feature :
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/EasierPythonDebugging
https://wiki.python.org/moin/DebuggingWithGdb
None of it mentions the debug build.
