It seems worth trying. By the way, I originally thought that debug info was left in the binaries and a debug package separated it. I think it's unfortunate not to have debug info available (the GNU build default). It presumably should be available for something like openfoam, for people to build parts of, anyhow. >> Incidentally, you could save about half the size of the boost >> contribution to closures like this by separating the headers and the >> libraries, but there was some problem I don;t remember when I tried. > > Too bad you don=E2=80=99t remember, it would be worth looking into that. > > Ludo=E2=80=99. It's easy (but not fast) to try again.
