Comment # 42 on bug 1166406 from Michal Suchanek

To summarize
 - vmlinux cannot be moved to debuginfo package
    - changing the way debuginfo packages are generated is infeasible, and this
would need substantial change
    - some tools need only vmlinux, not debuginfo, and forcing installation of
debuginfo for those is a no-go

 - moving vmlinux into separate package is possible (on non-ppc) provided tools
that assume vmlinux is present are fixed up (there are some additional binaries
used exclusively for debugging - eg. the s390 boot stub, vdso?)
   - some of these tools are something like debug tools or performance
measurement tools that can be fixed up as problems are found
   - some of these tools may be part of basesystem and it is critical that they
work from the start on all platforms
   - complex dependencies can be used to fix up debug package installation on
SLE15, on SLE12 this cannot be reasonably expected to work.
