Description:
Hello,

the new version 19.12.3 is much bigger than the previous version 19.12.2:
132.71Mb vs 16.06Mb.

I could be wrong but an increase of more than 800% on a point release makes me think something is not correct.

Here's a diff of the files' size if it helps: https://pastebin.com/j8TYTpd0

Thank you!

This happened because the PKGBUILD changed this:

-options=(!zipman)
+options=(!zipman debug !strip)

Was this intended to be released in such a manner? There's no explanation for why, e.g. in the commit message or PKGBUILD comments.
