Bug Description

The build of the IRC client quassel, delivered with (K)Ubuntu Jaunty, is a debug build, so the executable is 52 MB in size, after a "strip" its just 2 MB.
So it takes unnecessary space on disc AND the installation media.

---------------
quassel (0.4.2-0ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low

  * Drop DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip to debloat the package (LP: #370440)
  * Introduce quassel-dbg to be filled with debugging symbols
  * Compress packages using LZMA to decrease overall size (especially -dbg)
