The _d.so modules are compiled to work with Python's debug interpreter (which includes reference count debugging, etc) and don't have their debug symbols stripped, which accounts for the size difference.
The non-debug versions of extensions are stripped and have separate debug symbols. This bug is about gdb not finding those symbols due to the symlink tricks stopping gdb from matching the path names. -- debug symbols not found by gdb https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/91845 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
