Debuginfo Server has out-of-date symbols

03 September 2023, 14:54:59

Greetings.

I'm trying to debug a core dump from Mesa to make a report upstream, but I realized that there are no debug symbols for Mesa version 23.1.6-4 on the debuginfod server.

Is there a way to get up-to-date symbols?

I'm perfectly okay with being guided in producing my own symbols locally, if necessary.

Thank you very much for your attention.

Side note (out of curiosity): Would it be problematic automatically pushing the debug symbols onto the debuginfod instance on each package release?

Debug packages eat up a huge space, so we do only debug packages for the toolchain for now.
This may change to include more packages.

If you want a debug mesa, add

Code: [Select]

options=(debug)

in the PKGBUILD.
