Ah, wonderful. The default setting seems to be 'autoupdate=0' though. Is there a
problem with changing it to '1'? People who install debuginfos do it for
presumably well founded reasons, and I believe enabling autoupdate would serve
them better.
Probably because debuginfo files are very large and you might not want to waste
bandwidth keeping them updated. (Just guessing here)
I'd argue that autoupdate=0 should also delete the obsolete debuginfo packages when purging the corresponding old binary packages, as they are essentially useless.
