+ <longdescription>
+ The dwz package contains a program that attempts to optimize DWARF
+ debugging information contained in ELF shared libraries and ELF executables
+ for size, by replacing DWARF information representation with equivalent
+ smaller representation where possible and by reducing the amount of
+ duplication using techniques from DWARF standard appendix E - creating
+ DW_TAG_partial_unit compilation units (CUs) for duplicated information
+ and using DW_TAG_imported_unit to import it into each CU that needs it.
