RHEA-2013:1229 - Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

New devtoolset-2-dwz packages are now available as part of the General
Availability release of Red Hat Developer Toolset 2.0.

Description

dwz is a command line utility that attempts to optimize DWARF debugging
information contained in ELF shared libraries and ELF executables for size. It
replaces DWARF information representation with an equivalent smaller
representation where possible, and reduces the amount of duplication by using
techniques from the DWARF Standard, Appendix E.

This enhancement update adds the devtoolset-2-dwz packages to Red Hat Developer
Toolset 2.0. (BZ#911308)

All users who require devtoolset-2-dwz are advised to install these new
packages.
