Hi, There is an existing experimental patch series for debhelper to have it automatically create "ddebs"[1][2]. Currently, it /also/ happens for udebs, which leads me to:
* Is it useful for you to have ddebs generated from udebs? * Are there limitations or tweaks that I should be aware of in generating ddebs for udebs? - Can build-id based debug symbols be used? etc. Please note that I have very little practical experience with udebs and how they are used. You are doing me a favour if you assume I know less about udebs than you think I do. :) * If you see no benefit in having ddebs for udebs, please do not hesitate to let me know. I am more than happy to disable ddebs for udebs. Thanks, ~Niels (Please CC me on replies.) [1] Extra debs containing only debug symbols from the original (u)deb. Similar to "-dbg" packages, except debhelper makes them without any manual configuration. [2] Thread at https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2015/05/msg00010.html
