Bug#365349: Add support for creating a "debuginfo" package
Hi,
What's the status on the addition of a "debuginfo" package in addition
to linux-image-*? Is it just waiting on someone to do the work, and is
it something that needs to be discussed first?
It kind of hurts to hear people saying "systemtap works on every major
distro -- just install the debuginfo package. ah, except on Debian,
where you need to rebuild the kernel."
In Ubuntu, it has apparently been added in Hardy, and each debug package
takes ~25 MB. See
