For me, by adding the following lines:
%define debug_package %{nil}
%define __strip /bin/true
The debuginfo wasn't created and the debug information is not being
stripped anymore
(the binary file size is just like the original size that i wanted to
add to the RPM)

Can you tell me what the line you suggested does?
(or why the solution that i'm using is not the solution that i should use)
Thanks
