<p>The benefit of using the --zlib-compress-debug-sections option is that installed debug info gets smaller. The drawback is that loading debug information get slower. This may be an acceptable trade-off for either an an entire distro, or a subset of packages, experimentation is required to get that information. This option enables this kind of experimentation.</p>
