Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdb

I'm facing issues when debugging into a glibc call on Natty. The ARM
version of the libc6 ddeb (libc6-dbgsym) put its files into
/usr/lib/debug/lib/arm-linux-gnueabi. The gdb (7.2-1ubuntu11) is
configured with prefix=/usr and doesn't know about the Ubuntu/Debian way
of multiarch and thus won't find the debug infos:

  (gdb) show debug-file-directory
  The directory where separate debug symbols are searched for is 
"/usr/lib/debug".

As a workaround I set the debug-file-directory to /usr/lib/debug/lib
/arm-linux-gnueabi but it didn't work for some reasons.
