AT least for the directory a simple yum call should suffice:
yum --disablerepo '*' --enablerepo fedora\* whatprovides /usr/lib/debug
But it shows that a lot (all?) debuginfo packages own the directory
which probably needs to be fixed in rpm itself.

I have filed a bug against filesystem: BZ 911831.
I get 46 owners of /usr/lib/debug, that can't be all debug packages...
Shall we file a bug against rpm, saying that claiming the complete path
doesn't really work? I see the problems here, if rpm shouldn't claim the
complete path /usr/lib/debug/lib/whatever, the part to claim is more or
less arbitrary.
Multiple owned directories might not be "packaging purist clean" :) but
since -debuginfo packages are auto-generated and thus kinda guaranteed
to be non-conflicting, it's just the less ugly option when the
alternative is leaving empty directories behind. Which is what would
happen if -debuginfo packages didn't own *all* the directories they put
files into.
