[Bug 261380] Re: Packages have invalid .gnu_debuglink

[Martin Pitt]

Martin, thanks for your work on this. Some questions/notes:

 - Do we really need to explicitly build -dbg packages, given that pkg-
create-dbgsym already builds them for every package in the archive
anyway? The long-term goal is actually to remove -dbg packages entirely
(and we are pondering doing that on the Ubuntu builds). As long as the
package builds with -O2 -g and leaves stripping to dh_strip, it should
Just Work. That works for tens of thousands of other packages.

  So perhaps the -no-separate-debug-info  addition and
debian/patches/bug261380-nostrip.diff is everything that's required
here?

 - the lintian overrides should be removed from the patch. Lintian
should't complain about /usr/lib/debug/, that's a lintian bug.
