Shared libraries are not stripped in the manylinux1 wheels #19531
Description
In all yet uploaded Pandas versions for manylinux1, the shared libraries are not stripped and thus ship a lot of bytes overhead.
# du -sh /opt/_internal/cpython-3.5.4/lib/python3.5/site-packages/pandas/_libs/
70M /opt/_internal/cpython-3.5.4/lib/python3.5/site-packages/pandas/_libs/
Calling strip on these saves 53MiB of space.
# strip /opt/_internal/cpython-3.5.4/lib/python3.5/site-packages/pandas/_libs/*.so
# du -sh /opt/_internal/cpython-3.5.4/lib/python3.5/site-packages/pandas/_libs/
17M /opt/_internal/cpython-3.5.4/lib/python3.5/site-packages/pandas/_libs/
If someone could point me to the official scripts that generate these wheels, I would volunteer to change the build process that we only include stripped binaries.
