now impossible to debug code that uses PETSc shared libraries?

[Barry Smith]

   It seems to now be impossible to debug in code that uses PETSc  
shared libraries

	        fi; \
	        if [ "$$flag" != "" ]; then \
                 echo "building $$LIBNAME.${SL_LINKER_SUFFIX}"; \
                   ${RM} -f ${INSTALL_LIB_DIR}/tmp-petsc-shlib/*; \
	          cd  ${INSTALL_LIB_DIR}/tmp-petsc-shlib; \
	          ${AR} x ${INSTALL_LIB_DIR}/$$LIBNAME.${AR_LIB_SUFFIX}; \
                   cd $$cwd;\
	          ${OMAKE} LIBNAME=$$LIBNAME SHARED_LIBRARY_TMPDIR=$ 
{INSTALL_LIB_DIR}/tmp-petsc-shlib shared_arch; \
	        fi; \
	      fi; \
	    done; \
	    ${RM} -rf ${INSTALL_LIB_DIR}/tmp-petsc-shlib; \
	  fi


In the debugger, of course, one gets
warning: Could not find object file "/Users/bsmith/Src/petsc-dev-for- 
fixes/shit/lib/tmp-petsc-shlib/bvec2.o" - no debug information  
available for "bvec2.c".


since the .o files are removed the debugger cannot find any debug  
information.

Is this intentional? Seems pretty terrible to give up debugging just  
to use shared libraries.
