Simplify trim-paths feature by merging all debuginfo options together by Urgau · Pull Request #122450 · rust-lang/rust (original) (raw)

I think we'll do this, but since this is deviating from the accepted RFC, I want to find out what the procedure is here.

I'm not aware of such procedure. Our RFCs are not normative and it's common to diverged from them in the implementation and experimentation phase.

I would say that as long as we respect the goal of the RFC (as defined in the Summary and Motivation section of the RFC), we are good to adapt the implementation to achieve that goal, particularly here since we are adapting the implementation to match the reality (ie. the current limitation of the tooling and LLVM).

There is also nothing here that would prevent re-introducing the lost options in the future.

So I think we are go to go.
