On Macosx, the utility to use is dsymutil. On Windows, debugsymbols are controlled with flags to the compiler and linker. On Linux and Solaris, we use objcopy. Each platform is different.

I agree to David.

If your environment does not have objcopy, you should set --with-native-debug-symbols to internal or none.

checking what type of native debug symbols to use... zipped configure: error: Unable to find objcopy, cannot enable native debug symbols We can only fail for missing objcopy on platforms that actually use it. Silly question but how do we do the zipped debuginfo on platforms without an objcopy ??
