There's a configure option to build with -g and to not strip the
libraries and binaries when delivering/installing, i.e. --enable-symbols

There isn't a configure option to create a distribution-style debuginfo
package as that's typically done outside a packages own internal build.
(OOo is wildly atypical by creating rpms/debs itself as part of the
default build process) 

Debuginfo creation is done normally
through /usr/lib/rpm/find-debuginfo.sh at the end of a rpmbuild on
systems where it is configured by default to create such debuginfo and I
believe that it basically ends up using eu-strip from elfutils which has
a "-f" option which places the stripped content from a dso into an
output file.
