Thanks Florian.
I've tried as that page said. After apt-get update and search, still no
related package:

    sunny at wheel:~/commands$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ddebs.list
    deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com karmic-updates main restricted universe
    multiverse
    deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com karmic-security main restricted universe
    multiverse
    deb http://ddebs.ubuntu.com karmic-proposed main restricted universe
    multiverse

    sunny at wheel:~/commands$ apt-cache search erlang | grep dbgsym
    erlang-ssl-dbgsym - debug symbols for package erlang-ssl
    erlang-runtime-tools-dbgsym - debug symbols for package
    erlang-runtime-tools
    erlang-crypto-dbgsym - debug symbols for package erlang-crypto
    erlang-base-hipe-dbgsym - debug symbols for package erlang-base-hipe
    erlang-os-mon-dbgsym - debug symbols for package erlang-os-mon

I noticed there is a script in that page named: list-dbgsym-packages.sh,
but it still gave no result:

    sunny at wheel:~/commands$ ./list-dbgsym-packages.sh erlang
    erlang: No such file or directory.
    sunny at wheel:~/commands$ ./list-dbgsym-packages.sh
    /usr/lib/erlang/erts-5.7.2/bin/beam
    sunny at wheel:~/commands$

So, what can I do next?

Thanks,
Eric
