Re: Trying to strip a library

Hi Orion,

There are two ways to remove the debugging symbols:

1) strip --strip-debug your_library.so

2) objcopy --strip-debug your_library.so

Below is an example of both approaches:

1) Method using strip:

paul$ objdump --syms libfoo.so | grep debug
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_aranges 0000000000000000              .debug_aranges
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_info    0000000000000000              .debug_info
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_abbrev  0000000000000000              .debug_abbrev
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_line    0000000000000000              .debug_line
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_str     0000000000000000              .debug_str
paul$ strip --strip-debug libfoo.so
paul$ objdump --syms libfoo.so | grep debug
paul$

2) Method using objdump:

paul$ objdump --syms libfoo.so | grep debug
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_aranges 0000000000000000              .debug_aranges
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_info    0000000000000000              .debug_info
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_abbrev  0000000000000000              .debug_abbrev
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_line    0000000000000000              .debug_line
0000000000000000 l    d  .debug_str     0000000000000000              .debug_str
paul$ objcopy --strip-debug libfoo.so
paul$ objdump --syms libfoo.so | grep debug
paul$

Are there other symbols you are looking to strip?

Hope it helps,
Paul

I'm trying to resolve this packaging issue with Lmod:

https://artifacts.dev.testing-farm.io/4d7bee41-8d21-42fb-8c57-e5ffbf58119f/

debuginfo
BAD /usr/share/lmod/8.7.25/lib/tcl2lua.so in Lmod-8.7.25-2.fc38 on i686
contains debugging symbols

I've dealt with a couple of issues here:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/Lmod/pull-request/2

but despite all of my attempts the library does not appear to get stripped.

In fact:

]$ strip -g
/home/orion/BUILDROOT/Lmod-8.7.25-3.fc39.x86_64/usr/lib64/lmod/tcl2lua.so.1.0.1

$ file
/home/orion/BUILDROOT/Lmod-8.7.25-3.fc39.x86_64/usr/lib64/lmod/tcl2lua.so.1.0.1
/home/orion/BUILDROOT/Lmod-8.7.25-3.fc39.x86_64/usr/lib64/lmod/tcl2lua.so.1.0.1:
ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically
linked, BuildID[sha1]=aa1ea44979190d0cf530d350f8151ffafeab0f36, not stripped

?
