libgtk2.0-0-dbg doesn't ship real libraries but only the debugging symbols that correspond to the libraries in libgtk2.0-0. gdb (and other debugging tools) should automatically pick up the debugging symbols from the files in /usr/lib/debug. In other words, the bug above is invalid. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast | http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer
