cygport: No debuginfo is generated

[Corinna Vinschen]

Hi Yaakov,

I'm trying to build the new openssh 6.1p1-1 package.  My problem
is that the debuginfo package is not created:

  [...]
  *** Info: No debug files, skipping debuginfo subpackage

  >>> Checking packages for missing or duplicate files
  *** Warning: Packages are missing files:
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/scp.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/sftp.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/ssh-add.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/ssh-agent.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/ssh-keygen.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/ssh-keyscan.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/ssh.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin/sftp-server.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin/ssh-keysign.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin/ssh-pkcs11-helper.exe.dbg
  -usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin/sshd.exe.dbg
  [...]

First I thought that this is a result of linking the files without the
-g option, so I patched the cygport file to add -g to the link stage,
but to no avail.

The executables definitely contain Dwarf2 debug info, but the
corresponding *.dbg files all have a general look of brokenness:  They
have a constant size of 1197 bytes and don't contain any .debug_*
section.  Example:

$ ls -l scp.exe.dbg
-rw-r--r-- 1 corinna vinschen 1197 Sep  2 12:48 scp.exe.dbg
$ objdump -h scp.exe.dbg

scp.exe.dbg:     file format pei-i386

Sections:

FWIW, I'm using cygport-0.11.0-1.


Thanks for any help,
Corinna
