Package: kdelibs5-dbg
Version: 4:4.5.3-0r1
Severity: minor


I think kdelibs5-dbg should depend on kdelibs-bin of the same version 
instead of recommend it.  The reason being that you could get mismatched 
debug symbols if you have a system that pulls KDE from different apt 
repositories that have different KDE versions.

e.g. I went to install kdelibs5-dbg to generate a useful backtrace for a 
bug report, but the default was to install kdelibs5-dbg 4:4.4.5-2 even 
though i have kdelibs-bin 4:4.5.3-0r1 installed.

Most probably, kdelibs5-dbg should had a strict dependency on
libkdecore5, since it is basically used by almost all the other
packages, as the other packages have strict dependencies among them
already.

OTOH, kde4libs version 4:4.14.16-1 switched to the automatic dbgsym
packages -- see:
https://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace
https://wiki.debian.org/AutomaticDebugPackages
The result of the above is that each binary package has its own -dbgsym
package, with a strict version dependency.

I believe this should solve the issue, so I'm closing this bug as fixed.

Thank you for your report,
