Or why other Fedora packages have > debuginfo but Chromium does not? Well, if you can't convince the maintainer, you're welcome to escalate it to FESCo I suppose. I don't think there's a guideline that requires them to exist, but they are definitely handy sometimes. Perhaps a compromise could be to generate them for rawhide builds, but not stable releases and if someone needs to debug things ask them to use the rawhide one/debuginfo? kevin PS: I'm subscribed to the list, there's no need to specifically cc me on posts.
