Re: dbgsym packages and backports



Ansgar,

just an thought - if you see a value[*] in having -dbg package in
stable-backports, would it be possible to add some kind of workaround
into dak, that it would silently ignore missing binary package that end
with -dbg?

* And that value is higher that costs of making hacks into dak (and
possibly other Debian infrastructure).

Cheers,
