Unaware of the ABRT issue;  But even with the installed debuginfo packages the
problem exists:
	`yum update' gets the installed debuginfos out of sync
	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=432806
There are various Bugs referenced, such as:
	Debug info RPMs do not "require" exact maching binary rpm
	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=151598

Currently YUM at least updates both the main package and its debuginfo through
yum-plugin-auto-update-debug-info.  The problem is with all the mirrors and
daily Fedora updates the main repository and the debuginfo repository are
commonly off-by-one and thus the debuginfo packages still do not match.
