SuSE Devs, Leap 42.2 gdb complains that it is missing the debuginfo package: Starting program: /home/david/dev/src-c/tmp/debug/bin/splitap Missing separate debuginfos, use: zypper install glibc-debuginfo-2.22-3.7.x86_64 Attempting to install the package returns nothing?? $ sudo zypper install glibc-debuginfo-2.22-3.7.x86_64 Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... 'glibc-debuginfo-2.22-3.7.x86_64' not found in package names. Trying capabilities. No provider of 'glibc-debuginfo-2.22-3.7.x86_64' found. ['--plus-content debug'?] Resolving package dependencies... Nothing to do. Searching for any glibc-debuginfo returns nothing: $ zypper se glibc-debuginfo Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... No matching items found. With oss, update, non-oss and devtoos repos enabled. What gives, and why is gdb not finding the library files it needs to work correctly? Without whatever it is missing, gdb will not step into main and simply exits, e.g.: $ gdb ./bin/splitap <snip preamble junk> Reading symbols from ./bin/splitap...done.
