What does dh_strip --dbg-package do if two binary packages contain the same file?
|

| Hi,
I would like to add a -dbg package to exim4. However, I doubt that
dh_strip is doing the right thing here.
The Debian exim4 source package builds a number of binary packages.
Two of them are exim4-daemon-light and exim4-daemon-heavy, both of
with containing (different!) versions of /usr/sbin/exim4.
In the -dbg package created by dh_strip, I only have a single file
/usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin/exim4. Which debug information does this
contain? Does it contain debug information for both versions of the
binary? How do I find out which binary the debug information contained
inside belongs to?
Is dh_strip the right tool for this issue?
Any hints will be appreciated.
Greetings
Marc

You will need to create 2 -dbg packages. And use the -p option to
dh_strip in addition to --dpkg-package.

Actually 3, I fear. One for the -heavy daemon, one for the -light
daemon, and one for the other binary packages.

Having 3 dh_strip calls?
