[Bug 924002] Re: [Lucid] dbg package symbols are not provided for latest autofs packages

[Martin Pitt]

The build log says

dh_strip debug symbol extraction: ignored packages: 
autofs5 is already stripped, ignoring
autofs5-ldap is already stripped, ignoring
autofs5-hesiod is already stripped, ignoring
autofs is already stripped, ignoring
autofs-ldap is already stripped, ignoring
autofs-hesiod is already stripped, ignoring

Apparently the binaries are already stripped during build:

gcc -s -lpthread -rdynamic -pie -o automount automount.o indirect.o direct.o spawn.o module.o mount.o lookup.o state.o flag.o ../lib/autofs.a -ldl -lpthread -lxml2
strip --strip-debug automount

The build system needs to be told to not do that. dh_strip will do it,
and put the debug symbols into ddebs before. Many projects have an
--enable-debug configure switch, or something similar.

** Summary changed:

- [Lucid] dbg package symbols are not provided for latest autofs packages
+ build system strips binaries, so no debug symbol packages available
