Is it possible to strip a universal binary, rather than have to
strip each "thin" binary first, and then combine them?
Is there any downside to stripping the universal binary?
I too am interested in knowing your reasons for splitting the
universal, stripping and then recombining. I've always just
stripped the universal.
To answer my own question, one reason that occurs to me is that it
might be useful to have thin binaries lying around when you have to
decipher crash reports from users running on different architectures.
ie. if you're running on ppc and a user sends in an i386 crash
report, you'd run atos on the i386 thin binary; if you try running it
on the universal binary then atos will by default work with the ppc
portion of the binary, probably giving you the wrong results.
Andy's script, as provided, doesn't keep the thin, unstripped
binaries lying around. It instead just keeps the unstripped universal
binary. I think it would be a good idea to modify it so that it kept
the thin binaries instead.
Cheers,
Greg
