Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openafs-dbg

We have successfully been using the debug symbols from openafs-dbg when
debugging our Hardy fileservers. We are currently in the need of doing
debugging of our lucid fileservers but it seems that the openafs-dbg
package on lucid is broken.

> Description:    Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
> Release:        10.04
> 
> openafs-dbg:
>   Installed: 1.4.12+dfsg-3
>   Candidate: 1.4.12+dfsg-3

How to reproduce:
1) Install the debug package openafs-dbg
2) Run: gdb /usr/lib/openafs/fileserver

Instead of actually loading the debug symbols as expected the following message 
is printed:
> Reading symbols from /usr/lib/openafs/fileserver...
> warning: the debug information found in 
> "/usr/lib/debug//usr/lib/openafs/fileserver" does
> not match "/usr/lib/openafs/fileserver" (CRC mismatch).
> 
> warning: the debug information found in 
> "/usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/openafs/fileserver" does
> not match "/usr/lib/openafs/fileserver" (CRC mismatch).
> (no debugging symbols found)...done.
and consequently no debugging symbols are available for the debugger.

After searching LauncPad for similar problems I found among others
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/584477 which seems
similar. It references https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pkg-
create-dbgsym/+bug/566602 which suggests that the problem has been fixed
and that it would be sufficent to do a rebuild of openafs to reenable a
working debugging package.

Not having the possibility to attach a debugger and get symbols for
openafs makes debugging afs tricky.
