Bug#401385: This might not be as easy as I thought...
I wrote:
Having looked a little deeper, it appears it *does* use dh_strip after
all. The file to examine is debian/rules.d/binary-ada.mk.
I'll try modifying that file to add --keep-debug to the dh_strip
commands to see if that does anything useful...
And indeed it does. Very nicely, actually. Using this made it possible
to set breakpoints at line number locations within the source of the Ada
system libraries (e.g., the debug pool).
So the question now is: does anyone reading this have any preferences on
whether or not I should go to the trouble of breaking out the debug
files into separate debug packages? Using --keep-debug causes the debug
files to be put into the same package as the actual libraries, but
there's another option that allows you to tell dh_strip which package to
put the resulting debug files into.
