Tag: debug-file-with-no-debug-symbols Severity: warning Check: binaries/debug-symbols/detached Explanation: The binary is installed as a detached "debug symbols" ELF file, but it does not appear to have debug information associated with it. . A common cause is not passing -g to GCC when compiling. . Implementation detail: Lintian checks for the ".debug_line" and the ".debug_str" sections. If either of these are present, the binary is assumed to contain debug information. See-Also: Bug#668437
