Hiyas,
I am going to package offlineimap (http://software.complete.org/offlineimap/), which is a python programm. Rpmbuild only creates an empty debuginfo file, is this always the case for python programms / packages? Is it ok to disable the debuginfo package then with %define debug_package %{nil}?
Regards, Till

It seems that this (offlineimap) is a arch-independent package, so if you want to package this as rpm style, it should be marked as 'noarch'. Then debuginfo rpm is not created.

I have seen some of python packages are of noarch type. So in that case no debuginfo package is created. But if its a arch specific binary RPM then it will be create debuginfo. What i feel its good practice to always enable debuginfo packages, so that in future or if build problem occurs that can be used as basis to check cause of problem. Regards, Parag.
