Subject: [edk2-devel] Remove debug strings from OVMF.fd

Hi EDK2 developers,

I'm trying to build OVMF without debug symbols but even building as RELEASE, I still can see some strings on the PE files, such as:
<my-edk2-folder>/Build/OvmfX64/RELEASE_GCC5/X64/MdeModulePkg/Application/UiApp/UiApp/DEBUG/UiApp.dll
and many others in the format */DEBUG/*.dll

Is there a way to build without these strings?

Thanks!
