Subject: DWZ 0.17 released

Message-ID: <20260711201828.GF31804@gnu.wildebeest.org> (raw)

DWZ 0.17 has been released.

dwz - DWARF optimization and duplicate removal tool

    dwz is a program that attempts to optimize DWARF debugging
    information contained in ELF shared libraries and ELF executables
    for size, by replacing DWARF information representation with
    equivalent smaller representation where possible and by reducing
    the amount of duplication using techniques from DWARF standard
    appendix E - creating DW_TAG_partial_unit compilation units (CUs)
    for duplicated information and using DW_TAG_imported_unit to
    import it into each CU that needs it.

You can download dwz from the sourceware FTP server here:
