            Bug ID: 33693
           Summary: Support Gentoo binary package format (GPKG)
           Product: elfutils
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: debuginfod
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: sam at gentoo dot org
                CC: elfutils-devel at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

I'm looking at supporting debuginfod in two ways in Gentoo:
1) by producing "packdebug" tarballs of the /usr/lib/debug hierarchy, which
works well with -Z tar.xz /path/to/such/tarballs, and
2) by having debuginfod read our binary package tarballs (GPKG format) which
has binaries themselves within

For 2), the layout is a bit like Debian's:
* name-ver-ID/metadata.tar.SUFFIX
* name-ver-ID/image.tar.SUFFIX
* ...

e.g.
```
$ tree hwdata-0.400-1/
hwdata-0.400-1/
├── gpkg-1
├── image.tar.xz
├── Manifest
└── metadata.tar.xz

1 directory, 4 files
```

We're interested in the contents of image.tar.
