Bug#931891: dh_dwz: handle compressed debug sections?

[Matthias Klose <doko@debian.org>]

Package: debhelper,lintian
Severity: wishlist

dwz currently doesn't handle compressed debug sections.  In the first place, why
should we have these, because or dbg packages are compressed anyway. otoh, these
are enabled by some upstreams like ruby.

So what dh_dwz could do, is

 - look for SHF_COMPRESSED
 - objcopy --decompress-debug-sections
 - dwz
 - objcopy --compress-debug-sections

Or lintian could just warn about compressed debug sections.
