As part of the reproducible builds effort [1], it has so far proven to be very difficult to do so in a consistant manner. Be it with debugedit or -fdebug-prefix-map. Building packages in the right directory from the beginning is much more easier. > 2. Is it possible to reserve a system path for debug information, eg > all debug paths should start with "/usr/src/debug" During discussions at DebConf14 [2], there was a consensus that a canonical build path in (at least) pbuilder and sbuild would be a pretty sensible requirement. We thought of `/usr/src/debian/hello-2.8-1`. Users would then be able to unpack a source package in the same location and have gdb happy without further configuration.
