Description of problem:

The Developer Guide documentation doesn't seem to reflect the change we did for availability of debuginfo packages.

Specifically, reading Section 5.1 of the Developer Guide it says:

5.1. Installing Debuginfo Packages
Red Hat Enterprise Linux also provides -debuginfo packages for all architecture-dependent RPMs included in the operating system. A -debuginfo package contains accurate debugging information for its corresponding package. To install the -debuginfo package of a package (i.e. typically packagename-debuginfo), use the following command:
debuginfo-install packagename 

Unfortunately this doesn't work anymore as a machine needs to be subscribed to the debuginfo channel first for RHEL-6 in order to install packages from there.

So an additional note that reflects that would be very desirable.

Maybe something along the lines of:

"For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 the debuginfo packages are now available via a new channel on Red Hat Network. In order to be able to install debuginfo packages the machine therefore first has to be subscribed to the corresponding Debuginfo channel. For example for Red Hat Enterprise Server 6 the corresponding channel would be 'RHEL Server Debuginfo'."
