43<para>The steps in this section are optional. If your LFS partition is rather
44small, you will be glad to learn that you can throw away some unnecessary
45things. The executables and libraries you have built so far contain about 130 MB
46of unneeded debugging symbols. Remove those symbols like this:</para>
47
48<screen><userinput>strip --strip-unneeded /tools/{,s}bin/*
49strip --strip-debug /tools/lib/*</userinput></screen>
50
51<para>The first of the above commands will skip some twenty files, reporting
52that it doesn't recognize their file format. Most of them are scripts instead
53of binaries.</para>
54
55<para>Take care <emphasis>not</emphasis> to use
56<userinput>--strip-unneeded</userinput> on the libraries -- they would be
57destroyed and you would have to build Glibc all over again.</para>
58
59<para>To save another couple of megabytes, you can throw away all the
60documentation:</para>
61
62<screen><userinput>rm -rf /tools/{,share/}{doc,info,man}</userinput></screen>
63
64<para>You will now need to have at least 850 MB of free space on your LFS
65filesystem to be able to build and install Glibc in the next phase. If you can
66build and install Glibc, you can build and install the rest too.</para>
