Subject: [Bug default/19173] Abidiff doesn't detect symbol size change in library.
Date: Thu, 01 Jan 2015 00:00:00 -0000	[thread overview]

Nope, removing debug info removes the abidiff's report as well.

max@max:/tmp$ gcc libfoo.c -shared -fpic -o libfoo2.so  -DLONG 
max@max:/tmp$ gcc libfoo.c -shared -fpic -o libfoo.so  
max@max:/tmp$ ~/install/libabigail/bin/abidiff libfoo.so libfoo2.so

Actually, libabigail documentation states that the tool relies on debug info
quite hardly, so I'm not sure that running abidiff on stripped libraries makes
sense. On the other hand, the bug might be quite common and reporting it might
be desirable even if debug info is missing (just as for added/removed
functions).
