[bug #34658] gnustep-make defaults to debug=no; default should be debug=yes

[Nicola Pero]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #34658 (project gnustep):

This depends on how you configure gnustep-make.  gnustep-make's
configure has the --enable-debug-by-default option.  From the
configure documentation:

--enable-debug-by-default
   Enable building with 'make debug=yes' by default.  When you use
   gnustep-make to build software, you have a choice of using
   debug=yes or debug=no.  The debug=no will use the default compiler
   flags determined when gnustep-make was configured (usually -g -O2),
   while debug=yes will remove the optimization flags and add a
   number of debugging compiler flags.  If you do not specify the
   --enable-debug-by-default option, gnustep-make will default to
   building with debug=no when nothing is specified.  If you
   specify the --enable-debug-by-default option, gnustep-make will
   default to building with debug=yes instead, which can be handy if you
   always want to compile software with debug=yes and want to avoid
   having to type debug=yes each time you compile (an alternative
   is to define the variable debug=yes in your shell).  If you are
   unsure, you should stick with the default and ignore this option.

So, I suppose in your case you have configured gnustep-make with
the wrong option.

Thanks
