Ideally, Synaptic should have a Menu option "install all matching -dbg packages" which will get all -dbg packages for currently installed packages. I seem to remember that at one point one Linux system I worked on had both that and "install all matching -dev packages" as well. Might have been an older Ubuntu, or an older SuSE Linux. My memory is a bit hazy on this.
Ideally such an option should stay on and automatically install and remove -dbg packages for all future package installations and removals. Currently I'm clicking my way through the -dbg packages one by one, and installing everything that doesn't want to bring in any new non-dbg packages. Not very comfortable to say the least. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303522 Title: there should be a way to install all debug libraries easily -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
