Grrr....

  How do I add a debugging flag? Do I use CFLAGS=-DEBUG? CPPFLAGS=-DEBUG? add
--enable-debug? I've checked ./configure --help and it is silent on the issue.
I've added the --enable-debug below. It builds fine, but is only slightly larger
than the original:

-rw-r--r--  1 david david 274088 Feb 19 12:12 libxcb-1.7-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
-rw-r--r--  1 david david 273996 Feb 19 11:46 libxcb-1.7-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz.sav

  Do I need to enable debugging in another manner?


The build() is:

build() {
  cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
  patch -Np1 -i "${srcdir}/libxcb-1.1-no-pthread-stubs.patch"
  libtoolize --force --copy
  aclocal
  autoconf
  automake --add-missing
  PYTHON=python2 ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-xinput --enable-debug
  make
  make DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install
  install -m755 -d "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}"
  install -m644 COPYING "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/"
}

  Any help appreciated :)
