I can't comment for Harmattan (don't have looked if the debian tools are patched) but for Debian and Ubuntu, if you don't apply the patch, debug packages are broken/empty. Binaries are already stripped when dh_strip tries to strip them and create debug packages. Simple test: remove the patch and verify the debug packages, they're empty. >> A patch that I pulled in Meego builds as well. > > Not really, it works fine without that.
