Title:
  debug symbols not found by gdb

Status in “subversion” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: subversion

  I ran into a crash in a program that included a frame in /var/lib
  /python-support/python2.4/libsvn/_wc.so.  To try and find out what was
  going on I installed the corresponding debugging symbols package
  (python-subversion-dbg).

  However, it installed the debug symbols to
  /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libsvn/_wc.so which gdb
  couldn't find.

  I had to create a symlink to allow gdb to find the python-subversion
  debugging symbols:

      $ ls -l /usr/lib/debug/var/lib/python-support/python2.4
      lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 2007-03-13 15:15 /usr/lib/debug/var/lib/python-support/python2.4 -> ../../../usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages

  The system is running feisty as of today on AMD64.  I have python-
  subversion 1.4.2dfsg1-2ubuntu5 installed.
