dh_dwz

DH_DWZ(1)							     Debhelper								 DH_DWZ(1)

NAME
       dh_dwz - optimize DWARF debug information in ELF binaries via dwz

SYNOPSIS
       dh_dwz [debhelperoptions] [-Xitem] [--params]

DESCRIPTION
       Caveat: This tool is experimental and may disappear or change behaviour without any notice.

       dh_dwz is a debhelper program that will optimize the (uncompressed) size of the DWARF debug information in ELF binaries.  It does so by
       running dwz(1) on all the ELF binaries in the package.

OPTIONS
       -Xitem, --exclude=item
	   Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from being stripped. You may use this option multiple times to build up a
	   list of things to exclude.

       -- params
	   Pass params to dwz(1) when it processes ELF binaries.  This is mostly useful for setting memory related parameters (e.g. -l and -L).

NOTES
       If the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS environment variable contains nostrip, nothing will be stripped, in accordance with Debian policy (section 10.1
       "Binaries").

       While this tool technically does not remove debug information from binaries, it is still skipped when the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS environment
       variable contains nostrip.  This is because nostrip is often used to optimize build times (e.g. for "build and test"-cycles) rather than
       optimizing for size.

       debhelper(7)

       This program is a part of debhelper.
