Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.16.7ubuntu6 Severity: wishlist I am packaging a library implemented in C++ . During my effort to generate sane symbol files for it, I saw that C++ symbols differ among architectures.
One way to avoid having different symbols files for each architecture is to use the demangled names for C++ methods. Currently, I use this command in order to achieve it: for file in *.symbols; do c++filt < $file |sed 's/^ \(.*\(::\| \|)\).*\) \([^ ]\+\)/ (c++)"\1" \3/' > $file.demangled; done Would it be possible to have dpkg-gensymbols generate c++ demangled names automatically? This could be specified by an argument, e.g. dpkg-gensymbols -x Thanks -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers quantal-updates APT policy: (500, 'quantal-updates'), (500, 'quantal-security'), (500, 'quantal-proposed'), (500, 'quantal'), (100, 'quantal-backports') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.5.0-22-generic (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=el_GR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=el_GR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages dpkg-dev depends on: ii base-files 6.5ubuntu12 ii binutils 2.22.90.20120924-0ubuntu2 ii bzip2 1.0.6-4 ii libdpkg-perl 1.16.7ubuntu6 ii make 3.81-8.2ubuntu2 ii patch 2.6.1-3ubuntu1 ii xz-utils 5.1.1alpha+20120614-1 Versions of packages dpkg-dev recommends: ii build-essential 11.5ubuntu3 ii fakeroot 1.18.4-2 ii gcc [c-compiler] 4:4.7.2-1ubuntu2 ii gcc-4.6 [c-compiler] 4.6.3-10ubuntu1 ii gcc-4.7 [c-compiler] 4.7.2-2ubuntu1 ii gnupg 1.4.11-3ubuntu4.1 ii gpgv 1.4.11-3ubuntu4.1 ii libalgorithm-merge-perl 0.08-2 Versions of packages dpkg-dev suggests: ii debian-keyring 2012.06.01 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
