Package: prelink Version: 0.0.20071009-1 Severity: wishlist
I use prelink after installing new or upgraded packages, so that prelink "knows" which libraries are at which addresses. I recently had some crashes in a kde application and the stack traces had no symbols until I installed a large number of -dbg packages (more than actually needed and several hundred megabytes worth). If there was a tool that could take a stack trace as input and identify the libraries used (and hence -dbg packages needed) from prelink's mapping of libraries, this could make it easier to obtain stack traces with symbol information and provide more meaningful debugging information.
