[opensuse-factory] How can debug rpms be linked to their parent rpms
Hi, I've just come across a potential problem, I've put up with the fact that when I update a package I have to explicitly tell zypper or yast to update the debug package. Now I'm in the process of renaming rosegarden4 to it's correct name rosegarden and after a zypper dup -r homeproject I've noticed that the old rosegarden4 debug rpms had remained installed along with the new rosegarden ones. I removed them but it prompted me to ask why debug rpms are no longer linked to their parent package. If I remove a package the debug rpms remain behind and debug packages tend to use a lot of disk space. In the old days if one selected a debuginfo package it's matching debugsource was pulled in and if one removed the parent package the debug rpms were also removed. What is the solution to this? A bug report? An enhancement request? Regards Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
