for

I would just prefer line
+ [ -x /usr/bin/gdb-add-index ] && /usr/bin/gdb-add-index "$f"

that is would the /dev/null redirects, normally GDB does not produce any message anyway.

/usr/bin/gdb-add-index
is now present in gdb-7.1.90.20100721-5.fc14.

Proposing F14 Alpha Blocker as this is needed for feature completion.

[Adam (adam-redhat-bugs)]

This has come up before, and we don't consider incomplete features to be blockers. The feature process is separate from the release validation process. The fallback for a broken / incomplete feature, according to the process, is not to delay or block a release, but to go with the contingency/fallback plan for that feature.

Fair enough. Removed F14Blocker.

[Bug (bug-redhat-bugs)]

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 14 development cycle.
Changing version to '14'.

More information and reason for this action is here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

[Panu (panu-redhat-bugs)]

The one-liner version of the patch is in upstream rpm now. Should this still go to F14 or just rawhide? F14 is unlikely to get any mass-rebuilds at this stage so the benefit of the gdb index creation would be limited there.

[Jan (jan-redhat-bugs)]

As it is an approved F14 feature, it is a Bug filed for F14 and the GDB-side implementation went in F14 it should go for F14.

As the GDB startup performance problem is visible only on the several largest applications (OOo, Firefox etc.) these highly exposed packages usually get rebuilt even multiple times still before GA and then many times for updates.

This Bug is not MODIFIED as it is not present in rpm/f14 Fedora packages GIT.
It is neither RAWHIDE as it is not present even in rpm/master.
It could be UPSTREAM but I was requesting this feature for F-14, not upstream.
Thanks.

[Panu (panu-redhat-bugs)]

Okay, will do.

Oh and FYI on the bug status: I have this habbit o (ab)using the MODIFIED status to flag "fixed upstream, pending Fedora update" status for my own reference.
