The ports q/a framework has been suggesting this for a while, so I added INSTALL_TARGET=install-strip to lang/gcc5/Makefile.
Using install-strip for vanilla GCC builds (from source, outside the FreeBSD Ports framework) works just fine. In the context of Ports this runs into a permission problem since install sets binaries to r-x, at which point strip then fails. Here is the build log: install -m 555 fixinc.sh .../prefix/gcc5/libexec/gcc5/gcc/i386-portbld-freebsd10.1/5.0.0/install-tools/fixinc.sh install -s -m 555 fixincl .../prefix/gcc5/libexec/gcc5/gcc/i386-portbld-freebsd10.1/5.0.0/install-tools/fixincl install -m 555 mkheaders .../prefix/gcc5/libexec/gcc5/gcc/i386-portbld-freebsd10.1/5.0.0/install-tools/mkheaders test -z 'strip' || strip .../prefix/gcc5/libexec/gcc5/gcc/i386-portbld-freebsd10.1/5.0.0/install-tools/fixincl strip: unable to copy file '.../prefix/gcc5/libexec/gcc5/gcc/i386-portbld-freebsd10.1/5.0.0/install-tools/fixincl'; reason: Permission denied Makefile:191: recipe for target 'install-strip' failed gmake[3]: *** [install-strip] Error 1 How do we best go about this?
