There is a prometheus metric error_count, which has recorded frequent
"database disk image is malformed" sqlite3 errors, starting 2026-04-28.

Deleting the file is painful, if you don't have a backup to start from,
but all the binaries should be reindexed in a week or two at worst.

Title:
  Ubuntu debuginfod servers do not respond

Status in ubuntu-debuginfod:
  In Progress
Status in elfutils package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This isn't really a bug in elfutils because the issue is with Ubuntu's
  debuginfod servers but I don't know where else to report this bug.

  My DEBUGINFOD_URLS environment variable is pointing at the Ubuntu
  servers:

      $ echo $DEBUGINFOD_URLS
      https://debuginfod.ubuntu.com

  This is the correct URL as documented here:

  https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/how-to/debugging/about-debuginfod/

  However the servers do not respond:

      $ time debuginfod-find debuginfo /usr/bin/ls
      Server query failed: Timer expired
      
      real	6m43.527s
      user	0m0.013s
      sys	0m0.019s

  It appears that the Ubuntu debuginfo servers are down.

      $ wget --spider --tries 1 --timeout 10 'https://debuginfod.ubuntu.com'
      Spider mode enabled. Check if remote file exists.
