Since recognizing compressed sections and reporting proper section names came up recently here I thought it appropriate to mention the following:
The new as of a few minutes ago libdwarf (dwarfdump) on sourceforge reports the actual section name from the object file (in all cases unless I missed something) and also adds the word 'compressed' ( separated from the section name by a space) after that section name (when the section is in fact compressed). Clone anonymously with git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/libdwarf/code --------------- If you cp -r the source somewhere the new copy may not configure or build ... with a strange message about aclocal-1.15. because -r does not preserve timestamps. Next time use cp -rp ! At the top level: sh scripts/FIX-CONFIGURE-TIMES will restore correct time relationships. This and more is in the top level README. Please report any issues to me. Thanks.
