This is what wiki says:
-
/usr/bin/gdb.minimal— GDB executable built without optional unneeded features -
/usr/bin/gdb-add-index— Executable script shared with gdb-headless package (modified to fallback to gdb.minimal if exists)
gdb-add-index is in both gdb-minimal and gdb-headless.

Are you sure that the description is correct?
If /usr/bin/gdb-add-index is to be provided by "gdb" package, the "gdb-minimal"
package has no reason.
It seems to me according to the change, that the thing needs to be done the
other way around:
- gdb will probide /usr/bin/gdb
- gdb-minimal will provide /usr/bin/gdb.minimal and /usr/bin/gdb-add-index
- /usr/bin/gdb-add-index will check if there's a /usr/bin/gdb binary available,
and use it. Otherwise, it will fallback to /usr/bin/gdb.minimal
What am I not getting?
