%debug_package expands to a full package. So you can't put that macro
in all places in the spec file, but namely as subpackage of it's own.
So your BuildRequires line following makes me think you put it in between the
main package declaration - this will break in funny ways.

Put it right before the %prep line, there it should do less harm. I thought
OBS got a "build debuginfo" flag per project lately, but I never tried it.

Greetings, Stephan
