Description:
The python3 library is a lot bigger than python2's. 2,0M /usr/lib/libpython2.7.so.1.0 8,8M /usr/lib/libpython3.4m.so.1.0 I tried `strip -s` on it and: 2,5M /tmp/libpython3.4m.so.1.0 My interest in this is that it would notably make python3 programs more reactive the first time when using slow media. |

The problem here seems to be that the library is read only inside
fakeroot. According to Dave, Allan, and Andrew, makepkg ignores
stripping read-only libs.
Are you sure about the effect? I believe this will only save some
space (download and installed). The debug information isn't
actually read from disk until it is needed.
