Bug Description

dpkg 1.22.6ubuntu11 enables the ELF package metadata spec for all builds (see https://code.launchpad.net/~bluca/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+git/dpkg/+merge/465957). Setting DEB_BUILD_DEBUG_INFO_URL during package build will encode the debuginfod URL in the ELF package metadata.

Please set this variable for all builds that end up in the official Ubuntu archive:

DEB_BUILD_DEBUG_INFO_URL="https://debuginfod.ubuntu.com"

I had a quick look at this issue a few weeks back when we initially talked about it in Madrid, and the only "complicated" bit should be to define which specific builds will have that environmental variable.

If I understood correctly, it should be basically deb builds that don't go into a specific PPA (i.e., that go into the official Ubuntu archive), correct?

affects: launchpad → launchpad-buildd

Yes, there might be some exception for this rule. Sergio Durigan Junior is probably the best contact for that.

After more discussion, let's finally name it DEB_BUILD_DEBUG_INFO_URL (to reflect the key in the ELF metadata).

summary: - Please set DEB_BUILD_DEBUGINFOD_URLS for build of the Ubuntu archive
