This is what wiki says:

   - /usr/bin/gdb.minimal — GDB executable built without optional unneeded
   features
   - /usr/bin/gdb-add-index — Executable script shared with gdb-headless
   package (modified to fallback to gdb.minimal if exists)

gdb-add-index is in both gdb-minimal and gdb-headless.
