Hi folks,
I think the directory Pacman is using for the split-out debug symbols is incorrect. This appears to be needed:
Why do you think this? What are the symptoms you're seeing? I use debug packages all the time and they work as expected.
I've seen tools complain they can't find debug symbols or simply not show
any.
What tools have you used successfully? perf, gdb, and oprofile all seem to look in the 'debug-id' directory, not in 'debug_id'...
gdb and valgrind, mostly. I've not seen either complain about missing symbols.
I think this is an actual bug. I bet gdb/valgrind are finding the /usr/lib/debug/path/to/file symlinks and not using the .build-id path.
