-dev packages do not help give good debugging output. You need -dbg
and/or -dbgsym packages for that. (-dev packages provide header files,
not debug symbols.)

Some of the relevant debug symbol packages are available only in the
-dbgsym variety, so you'll need to enable the ddebs repository, by
following the directions at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash.

Then the debug symbol packages corresponding to the packages to which
the specified -dev packages correspond are installable via the following
command:

sudo apt-get install unity-dbgsym libunity-core-4.0-4-dbgsym libunity-
misc4-dbgsym libqt4-dbg

However, that wouldn't actually install the Unity packages relevant to
this crash, since this bug is in unity-2d and not unity. So this command
would be more appropriate:

sudo apt-get install unity-2d-launcher-dbgsym unity-2d-panel-dbgsym
unity-2d-places-dbgsym unity-2d-spread-dbgsym libunity-2d-
private0-dbgsym libqt4-dbg

If you like, you can run both those commands. Though I think the first
one may be incorrect for a different reason--it tries to install
packages for libunity4, but Oneiric uses libunity6. You can make the
obvious change to fix that, if the command fails giving an error
messaging indicating that it cannot install those packages.

If you run both commands, don't worry about how they both attempt to
install libqt4-dbg. If it's installed by the above method, telling apt-
get to install it again that way will make no change.

You should copy those commands from
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/882300, and not
your email, as they'll get broken up in your email in a way that will
result in them getting run incorrectly.
