copied!<p>You need to use <em>objcopy</em> to <a href="http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/4/html/Debugging_with_gdb/separate-debug-files.html" rel="noreferrer">separate the debug information</a>:</p> <pre><code>objcopy --only-keep-debug "${tostripfile}" "${debugdir}/${debugfile}" strip --strip-debug --strip-unneeded "${tostripfile}" objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink="${debugdir}/${debugfile}" "${tostripfile}" </code></pre> <p>I use the bash script below to separate the debug information into files with a .debug extension in a .debug directory. This way I can tar the libraries and executables in one tar file and the .debug directories in another. If I want to add the debug info later on I simply extract the debug tar file and voila I have symbolic debug information.</p> <p>This is the bash script:</p> <pre><code>#!/bin/bash scriptdir=`dirname ${0}` scriptdir=`(cd ${scriptdir}; pwd)` scriptname=`basename ${0}` set -e function errorexit() { errorcode=${1} shift echo $@ exit ${errorcode} } function usage() { echo "USAGE ${scriptname} <tostrip>" } tostripdir=`dirname "$1"` tostripfile=`basename "$1"` if [ -z ${tostripfile} ] ; then usage errorexit 0 "tostrip must be specified" fi cd "${tostripdir}" debugdir=.debug debugfile="${tostripfile}.debug" if [ ! -d "${debugdir}" ] ; then echo "creating dir ${tostripdir}/${debugdir}" mkdir -p "${debugdir}" fi echo "stripping ${tostripfile}, putting debug info into ${debugfile}" objcopy --only-keep-debug "${tostripfile}" "${debugdir}/${debugfile}" strip --strip-debug --strip-unneeded "${tostripfile}" objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink="${debugdir}/${debugfile}" "${tostripfile}" chmod -x "${debugdir}/${debugfile}" </code></pre>
