NAME

       find-debuginfo - finds debuginfo and processes it

SYNOPSIS

       find-debuginfo [OPTION]... [builddir]

DESCRIPTION

       automagically generates debug info and file lists

OPTIONS

       [--strict-build-id]  [-g]  [-r]  [-m]  [-i]  [-n]  [--keep-section  SECTION]  [--remove-section  SECTION]
       [--g-libs]  [-j   N]   [--jobs   N]   [-o   debugfiles.list]   [-S   debugsourcefiles.list]   [--run-dwz]
       [--dwz-low-mem-die-limit  N]  [--dwz-max-die-limit  N]  [--dwz-single-file-mode]  [--build-id-seed  SEED]
       [--unique-debug-suffix  SUFFIX]  [--unique-debug-src-base  BASE]  [[-l  filelist]...  [-p  'pattern']  -o
       debuginfo.list] [builddir]

       The  -g  flag  says to use strip -g instead of full strip on DSOs or EXEs.  The --g-libs flag says to use
       strip -g instead of full strip ONLY on DSOs.  Options -g and --g-libs are mutually exclusive.

       The -r flag says to use eu-strip --reloc-debug-sections.

       Use --keep-section SECTION or --remove-section SECTION to explicitly keep a  (non-allocated)  section  in
       the  main  executable  or  explicitly  remove  it  into  the .debug file. SECTION is an extended wildcard
       pattern.  Both options can be given more than once.

       The --strict-build-id flag says to exit with failure status if any ELF binary processed fails to  contain
       a build-id note.

       The -m flag says to include a .gnu_debugdata section in the main binary.

       The -i flag says to include a .gdb_index section in the .debug file.

       The -n flag says to not recompute the build-id.

       The -j, --jobs N option will spawn N processes to do the debuginfo extraction in parallel.

       A  single  -o  switch  before  any  -l  or  -p  switches  simply  renames  the  primary  output file from
       debugfiles.list to something else.  A -o switch that follows a -p switch or some -l switches produces  an
       additional output file with the debuginfo for the files in the -l filelist file, or whose names match the
       -p  pattern.   The  -p  argument  is  an grep -E -style regexp matching the a file name, and must not use
       anchors (^ or $).

       The  --run-dwz  flag  instructs   find-debuginfo   to   run   the   dwz   utility   if   available,   and
       --dwz-low-mem-die-limit and --dwz-max-die-limit provide detailed limits.  See dwz(1) -l and -L option for
       details.  Use --dwz-single-file-mode to disable multi-file mode, see dwz(1) -m for more details.

       If  --build-id-seed  SEED  is  given then debugedit is called to update the build-ids it finds adding the
       SEED as seed to recalculate the build-id hash.  This makes sure the build-ids in the ELF files are unique
       between versions and releases of the same package.  (Use --build-id-seed "%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}".)

       If --unique-debug-suffix SUFFIX is  given  then  the  debug  files  created  for  <FILE>  will  be  named
       <FILE>-<SUFFIX>.debug.   This  makes  sure  .debug  are  unique  between  package  version,  release  and
       architecture.  (Use --unique-debug-suffix "-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{_arch}".)

       If --unique-debug-src-base BASE is given then the source directory will be called  /usr/debug/src/<BASE>.
       This  makes  sure  the debug source dirs are unique between package version, release and achitecture (Use
       --unique-debug-src-base "%{name}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{_arch}")

       All file names in switches are relative to builddir ('.' if not given).
