At the same time all other files - drv, sys, cpl, exe and even the static libraries - were left as-is. As the https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/MinGW_package_guidelines suggest, we should be stripping at least the static libraries. Although in practise, we should probably do everything in `/usr/lib*/wine/*windows/` * package version(s) wine 8.10-1 Steps to reproduce: - file /usr/lib/wine/x86_64-windows/* | grep -v stripped | wc -l -> 381 - change the PKGBUILD to strip everything, rebuild and install - aka `sed s/\.dll// PKGBUILD` - file /usr/lib/wine/x86_64-windows/* | grep -v stripped | wc -l -> 0 - wine and windows apps work as usual - bonus: wine package is ~15% smaller
