Description Ville Skyttä 2011-01-13 18:53:58 UTC 
Created attachment 473389 [details]
Let rpmbuild strip binaries, make build more verbose.

libtalloc 2.0.5-6 installs *.so.* as non-executable, which means rpmbuild will not strip them.  Fix attached, along with a change that makes the used CFLAGS visible in the build log.

Thanks for your help with this. I wasn't sure what was causing that to happen.

I will apply this fix to libtdb and libtevent as well, which are also suffering this issue, and I've reported https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7905 upstream to Samba to fix the build system so it generates the libraries correctly.
Comment 4 Ville Skyttä 2011-01-14 16:51:23 UTC 
"Correctly" might be a bit strong word to use when communicating with upstream - unless I'm mistaken, there's no actual need for shared objects to be executable in Linux.  The executability requirement is just a quirk in rpmbuild's debuginfo extractor (and I believe also some other things in rpmbuild that deal with shared objects).
