[Bug 911188] Re: Lack of *-dbgsym package

[Colin Watson]

This is ridiculously painful because:

 * calling pkg_create_dbgsym manually doesn't do all the correct stuff with /CurrentlyBuilding
 * calling dh_strip doesn't work because bzip2's installation directories are non-standard
 * converting the whole thing to debhelper is possible but Just Rude

So I give up for now; I think some logic needs to be factored out of
pkg-create-dbgsym's dh_strip wrapper before this is practical.

Bug description:
  At Linaro we want to create cross compilation sysroots from Ubuntu
  packages. First versions contained all development (*-dev) packages
  which we needed and now we want to have also debug symbols. For this
  we need to have *-dbgsym packages provided.
