Sounds Good. Thanks for the help!

Hi,
Thanks Milian. So if I am right, I should do the following:
1) Run "perf buildid-list" and catch all the <file path, build-ids>
pairs.
2) First check for the existence of the file path.
3) If failed, concatenate "~/.debug", file path, "/" and buildid and use
it as the alternative.

you missed the trailing "/elf" but otherwise yes :)

I thought that GDB is smart enough to detect these situations in the
same way that it detects debug info files.
Should I check any directory other than ~/.debug?

Hmm good point, GDB should indeed do that by default but maybe it doesn't do
it for the `file` command for some reason? I cannot answer this, sorry.

Cheers

You can try to parse the output of `perf buildid-list` to get a mapping
that
can be used to run this on another person's machine. E.g.

```
$ perf buildid-list

I'm afraid to say that I currently don't have the time required to be
of more
help in debugging this issue in general.

Good luck!
