Current status
Detailed Description
Create subpackage in gdb source package called gdb-minimal that will contain 2 files:
/usr/bin/gdb.minimal— GDB executable built without optional unneeded features/usr/bin/gdb-add-index— Executable script shared with gdb-headless package (modified to fallback to gdb.minimal if exists)
debuginfo code in RPM needs just gdb-add-index and that one doesn't need any syntax highlight or python plugins to work.
As of Apr 26, following packages would disappear from buildroot:
boost-regex-1.69.0-6.fc30.x86_64 ctags-5.8-25.fc30.x86_64 gdbm-libs-1:1.18-4.fc30.x86_64 libbabeltrace-1.5.6-2.fc30.x86_64 libicu-63.1-2.fc30.x86_64 libipt-2.0-2.fc30.x86_64 python-pip-wheel-19.0.3-1.fc31.noarch python-setuptools-wheel-40.8.0-1.fc30.noarch python3-3.7.3-2.fc31.x86_64 python3-libs-3.7.3-2.fc31.x86_64 python3-pip-19.0.3-1.fc31.noarch python3-setuptools-40.8.0-1.fc30.noarch source-highlight-3.1.8-24.fc31.x86_64 sqlite-libs-3.27.2-3.fc31.x86_64
