Hi lads,
lately I am having bit of problems from getting relevant debug info from users.

Since we already have splitdebug for quite time (and I suppose quite
few of us are using it) how about making it to default profiles
default enabled and add -g to default cflags. Currently it is only
enabled in the developer profile.

This results in 2 gb data in /usr/lib/debug for my system which is not
that bad with current disk sizes and it saves users quite some time
when i have to request them to recompile half of their system with
debug info just to get idea how to fix their issue.

I would go even for compressdebug feature but that one needs more time
as some packages like glibc fails to merge with it and you need newer
gdb to work with it.

Cheers

Tom
