FTP listing of the Fedora mirrors hosted in India, is missing the debuginfo packages. I'm able to locate the same under most of the International mirrors with few of them to list picked from the mirror list hosted at http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/publiclist/Fedora/12/ are
- ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/Linux/fedora/linux/releases/12/Everything/x86_64/ debug/
- ftp://ftp.crihan.fr/mirrors/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/releases/12/Everything/x86_64/ debug/
- ftp://fedora.c3sl.ufpr.br/fedora-enchilada/linux/releases/12/Everything/x86_64/ debug/

 But none of the local mirrors mentioned out there seems to have that be it
- ftp://ftp.iitm.ac.in/fedora/releases/12/Everything/x86_64/
- ftp://mirror.cse.iitk.ac.in/fedora/releases/12/Everything/x86_64/
- ftp://fedora.glug-nith.org/linux/releases/12/Everything/x86_64/
with an exception of one but with stale packages, dating back to Nov'09.
http://fedoramirror.hnsdc.com/releases/12/Everything/x86_64/

I request the admins to please take the neccessary steps for getting this done as the ABRT needs them for generating the backtrace. ABRT uses ' yumdownloader' as said in '/usr/bin/abrt-debuginfo-install' which in turn looks for local mirrors but in vain has to look abroad for the same which in itself is a time consuming task, and the purpose of mirrors is not fulfilled to fullest.

Open your doors.......It's time to look beyond Windows

i suspect you'll have to take this up with the respective mirrors, as it's up to them which content they actually mirror ;)
