I think it has them as I ran 'gdb --args pan --debug'. How do I get

Looks like the pan you compiled has no (or not all) debug symbols.
Could you try to recompile pan with the following instructions:
git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pan.git
cd pan
export CFLAGS="-g"
export CXXFLAGS="-g"
./autogen.sh --with-gnutls --with-dbus --with-gmime-crypto --with-gtkspell
--enable-libnotify --enable-gkr --enable-manual
make
You should then have a pan executable with debug symbols.
I avoid git/etc. software after a lot of bad experiences with it fixing
minor bugs but introducing critical bugs. I rebuilt pan 0.154 but could
try something from git later.
Here's what I have on my system:
$ ls -l pan/gui/pan
-rwxr-xr-x 1 domi domi 40160208 Jul 29 11:18 pan/gui/pan
$ file pan/gui/pan
pan/gui/pan: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux),
dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2,
BuildID[sha1]=539f95e4e53f7b4c20e2b489f927436d2460269e, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0,
with debug_info, not stripped
Note the "debug_info, not stripped" part which indicates that the binary
contains debug symbol and variable names. [...]
This time I edited pan.SlackBuild to not strip the binary and it's like
you explained above. I ran gdb with instructions from
http://pidgin.im/development/debugging/ and got an almost 30MB error
log... is this what you want or did I do something wrong, and if it's
useful, where should I post it?
