Hi
Now that debug symbols are automatically generated in -dbgsym packages,
how do you handle the debug
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pppppppp.x86_64-linux-gnu_d.so files?
They used to go in a generic -dbg package.

- Do not migrate to new style -dbgsym packages and keep everything in
rrtool-dbg, like it is now.
that would be my preferred solution.
Reading
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide#Building_python_-dbg_packages,
there is some hints to this, but it's not clear that only automatic
debug packages work for Python packages. Would it make sense to update
the wiki page and say "don't migrate to dbgsym packages as Python needs
debug extensions and not only debug symbols"?
