apport-retrace with the --sandbox option does that job quite nicely
these days. If you install the package, you get an "Examine locally.."
button in crash dialogs that will throw you into either a gdb session or
give you a full stack trace without having to do anything manually.
That's about as far as we'll get this I think, and thus I close the bug
now.

Title:
Allow easy installation of -dbgsym packages
Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “pkg-create-dbgsym” package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
If I'm trying to debug package 'foo', by fetching the '-dbgsym' for
that application, it would be handy if dbgsymbols for all of the
libraries dependencies of that application could also be installed.
Using 'Suggests:' or the new 'Recommends:' setup would allow these
packages (which are fairly small) to be pulled in. They would also
automatically be removed when the application-level debug symbols are
removed and would not break a the setup if removed directly.
