Unfortunately it seems most of the symbols have been stripped. All binaries in Debian are stripped, usually with debhelper's dh_strip; (which just calls /usr/bin/strip with appropriate arguments).
If you compile the binary yourself, (apt-get -b source gedit) you will get the debugging symbols in the backtrace (depending on the build system, you might have to first do something like DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip). You might also compile the libraries nostrip, and then there will be symbols there, too. > If somebody can tell me how to output a package information view like > those I see in other posts (sample shown below), I'll post one of my > own. I've had a look around, but can't see how it's done anywhere. You can just use the reportbug tool to report bugs. Otherwise, you can dpkg -l gedit, if that is the only packages about which you want information. Justin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
