I downloaded the source of shellutil-2.0 package, ran "./configure && 
make check". Now the size of  printf utility is 108102 bytes. Then I ran 
"strip --remove-section=.comment --remove-section=.note printf", which 
is what dh_strip uses for executables. Now its size is 18324 bytes. But 
"ls -l /usr/bin/printf" shows 10496 bytes, 8KB smaller than mine.  What 
am i missing here?

My system is a Debian potato distro.
