From 6a6962fd82ca92f2e7ad7be07cf6a986d5224a61 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Yann E. MORIN" Date: Tue, 20 May 2014 23:54:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] build/sstrip: deprecate for 2014.05 Quoting Thomas on IRC: > sstrip is a piece of crap that we should exterminate > from the surface of the planet sstrip is now unmaintained, has a long history of generating butchered binaries in some cases, and does not gain that much space in the end. We'd like to obliviate sstrip from the strip options, anihilate the sstrip package, scorch any reference in fire, and cleanse our tree free of any remnants... But first, let's just deprecate it for now. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.
