Looking at the /usr/lib/rpm/macros and the find_debuginfo stuff in
particular, those pieces of your patch makes sense to drop and replace with
the find_debuginfo_opts[1].

I am curious about the AFTER_LINK patch.  What is the reason to drop it?
The patch probably needs to be dropped as either stale or integrated
differently upstream, just thought it would be nice to have it documented.


Can I assume your testing was install the debuginfo package and have an
application like gdb or crash read in the symbols to verify the contents?


I think this patch is a good direction forward, just a little nitpick in
[1].

Cheers,
Don


[1] - Adding the VERSION and RELEASE stuff to find_debuginfo_opts must have
been painful.  It also makes it hard to read.  I was curious if a macro
would work there, where we pass a list of files and the macro spits out the
files with the VERSION, RELEASE, _arch, _debug junk appended to it?

This might make it easier to add to later and maintain?
