I tried 'debuginfo-install rhythmbox' and got a list of 43 packages..... cool. However, it looks like it wants to install 3 'real' packages: Installing: GConf2-debuginfo i386 2.20.1-4.fc9 development-debuginfo 553 k ORBit2-debuginfo i386 2.14.10-2.fc8 development-debuginfo 838 k <<<<<SNIP>>>>> Installing for dependencies: avahi-gobject i386 0.6.22-4.fc9 development 26 k avahi-qt3 i386 0.6.22-4.fc9 development 19 k minizip i386 1.2.3-16.fc9 development 23 k That seems strange to me.
