[ Could you please keep me in Cc:, I'm not subscribed to this list. ] Hello,
I have recently noticed that the /usr/bin/ocamlrpcgen program coming from libocamlnet-ocaml-bin package is broken in Ubuntu Gutsy (bug #180364 [1]) while the same program from the same package version (source package ocamlnet 2.2.7) works in Debian Etch[2]. Apparently, this ocamlrpcgen program is broken because its binary has been stripped (see [1] for evidences). Stefano Zacchiroli, a Debian Developer, suggested that ocamlrpcgen was wrongly stripped at package building however it seems that this is not the case. More exactly, the debian/rules for this package[3] contains the correct line: DEB_STRIP_EXCLUDE += usr/bin/ocamlrpcgen More importantly, ocamlnet source package seems to be a direct import of Debian and doesn't seem to be modified in Ubuntu. So my question is: why is the /usr/bin/ocamlrpcgen program stripped on Ubuntu and not on Debian? Is there any Ubuntu specific rule that strips binaries afterwards? At package installation? Any reason the DEB_STRIP_EXCLUDE rule is not obeyed? Many thanks for any help at this issue. I'm a bit lost and this bug is a real showstopper for me.
