According to a report --strip-unneeded isn't as safe on libraries as we originally thought it to be. Apparently it will cause static link failures when static libs are stripped that way. Dynamic libs may have some unexpected problems too. So we'll just go back on the safe side and only use --strip-debug git-svn-id: http://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/LFS/trunk/BOOK@637 4aa44e1e-78dd-0310-a6d2-fbcd4c07a689

Well done! You have finished installing your LFS system. It may have
|
|
been a long process but it was well worth it. We wish you a lot of fun
|
|
with your new shiny custom built Linux system.

Now would be a good time to strip all debug symbols from
|
|
the binaries on your LFS system. If you are not a programmer and don't plan
|
|
on debugging your software, then you will be happy to know that you can
|
|
reclaim a few tens of megs by removing debug symbols. This process causes
|
|
no inconvenience other than not being able to debug the software fully
|
|
anymore, which is not an issue if you don't know how to debug. You can
|
|
remove the symbols by executing the following command:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><literallayout>
|
|
<userinput>find / -type f -exec strip --strip-debug '{}' ';'

</userinput>

</literallayout></blockquote>

If you plan to ever upgrade to a newer LFS version in the future it
|
|
will be a good idea to create the /etc/lfs-&version; file. By having
|
|
this file it is very easy for you (and for us if you are going to ask
|
|
for help with something at some point) to find out which LFS version
|
|
you have installed on your system. This can just be a null-byte file by
|
|
running:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><literallayout>
|
|
<userinput>touch /etc/lfs-&version;</userinput>
|
|
</literallayout></blockquote>

If you are wondering: "Well, where to go now?" you'll be glad to hear that
|
|
someone has written an <ulink
|
|
url="http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs-hints/Afterlfs.txt">LFS-Hint</ulink>
|
|
on that subject. On a same note, if you are not only newbie to LFS, but also
|
|
newbie to Linux in general, you may find the <ulink
|
|
url="http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs-hints/newbie.txt">newbie
|
|
hint</ulink> very interesting.

Don't forget there are several LFS mailinglists you can subscribe to if
|
|
you are in need of help, advice, etc. See
|
|
<ulink url="ch01-maillists.html">Chapter 1 - Mailinglists</ulink> for
|
|
more information.

Again, we thank you for using the LFS Book and hope you found this book
|
|
useful and worth your time.
