How to generate debug symbols when building using mingw64

Question

I'm using mingw64 (gcc 10.x) to build a few libraries (libgsf and its dependencies). What should be set so the build will also generate debug symbols? The compilation cmd is

MINGW_INSTALLS=mingw64 makepkg-mingw -sLf

Answer 1

To generate debug symbols you need to pass the -g flag to gcc org g++.
