Yo! With the release of pacman 6.0.2 we have now support for debug packages through `debugedit` as opposed to the awk hack used previously.
https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman/-/commit/ae2f506ddfd1 This should resolve several issues we have had with the existing debug packages and I want people to test this support. Please recreate your build chroots and/or reinstall base-devel locally. Enable debug in a diverse set of packages you maintain. And help validate the current assumptions: * Debug packages for Rust, Go* and Julia should work * Weird /build directories should not exist * We should have header files * The source files should be located in `/usr/src/debug/${pkgbase}-${pkgver}` You can list them easily with `bsdtar -tf *.pkg.tar.zst` Note pacman is currently in [testing]. In the case for Go we need to disable compressed dwarf headers with `-ldflags=-compressdwarf=false`. It should be the case for any binaries with these headers as well. They can be recognized with the weird "DWARF version 0 unhandled" error string during stripping. Please report back if things look good, or you are looking at weird debug package structures :) If everything looks fine I intend to write an RFC for blanket enabling debug packages in devtools! -- Morten Linderud PGP: 9C02FF419FECBE16
