Hi Severin, So yes I guess maybe "debugsymbols-image" is more precise, we call it "debugimage" at Adopt, see artifacts: https://ci.adoptopenjdk.net/job/build-scripts/job/jobs/job/jdk15u/job/jdk15u-linux-x64-openj9/ that's less of a mouthful and I think we're used to that name, but if the community would prefer that? Cheers Andrew

If I understand this correctly it's an image of only *debugsymbols* for native files, right? debug-image as a name seems a bit confusing to me. There is already a concept of 'release', 'fastdebug' and 'slowdebug' builds for HotSpot. Perhaps calling it debugsymbols-image would make more sense?
