Package: aptitude Version: 0.6.3-3.1 Severity: wishlist --- Please enter the report below this line. ---
I would like like to be able to have aptitude automatically install debugging symbols (where they are available) as if they were dependencies. This way, no manually installed debugging symbols will be needed, thus they will be removed whenever the package they belong to is being removed, too. The result aimed at is to effectively be able to have a Debian system which mostly behaves as if the binaries weren't stripped to begin with, thereby facilitating development. Manual installation of the -dbg packages is not the same thing. This is going to be especially usefull, once automatical generation of -dbg packages is implemented. --- System information. --- Architecture: amd64 Kernel: Linux 2.6.35.7 Debian Release: squeeze/sid 991 testing ftp.uni-kl.de 990 testing security.debian.org 990 testing ftp.de.debian.org 52 experimental-snapshots qt-kde.debian.net 51 unstable ftp.uni-kl.de 51 unstable ftp.de.debian.org 51 experimental ftp.uni-kl.de 51 experimental ftp.de.debian.org 50 stable volatile.debian.org 50 stable security.debian.org 50 stable ftp.uni-kl.de 50 stable ftp.de.debian.org --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed ==============================================-+-================== libapt-pkg4.10 | libboost-iostreams1.42.0 (>= 1.42.0-1) | 1.42.0-4 libc6 (>= 2.3.4) | 2.11.2-6 libcwidget3 | 0.5.16-3 libept1 | 1.0.3+b1 libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1) | 1:4.4.5-2 libncursesw5 (>= 5.7+20100313) | 5.7+20100313-4 libsigc++-2.0-0c2a (>= 2.0.2) | 2.2.4.2-1 libsqlite3-0 (>= 3.7.2) | 3.7.2-1 libstdc++6 (>= 4.4.0) | 4.4.5-2 libxapian22 | 1.2.3-2 zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4) | 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 Recommends (Version) | Installed ============================================-+-=========== aptitude-doc-en | OR aptitude-doc | sensible-utils | 0.0.4 apt-xapian-index | 0.40 libparse-debianchangelog-perl | Suggests (Version) | Installed =======================-+-=========== tasksel | 2.82 debtags | 1.7.10+b1 --- Output from package bug script --- aptitude 0.6.3 compiled at Aug 26 2010 19:06:44 Compiler: g++ 4.4.5 20100816 (prerelease) Compiled against: apt version 4.10.0 NCurses version 5.7 libsigc++ version: 2.2.4.2 Ept support enabled.
