A problem related to debuginfo was found in the openssh-5.3p1-52.el6_1.2 package. This issue might affect crash analysis done by Automatic Bug Reporting Tool and its retrace server, and also prevent proper debugging of crashes via GDB. A debuginfo file for a binary is not present in the debuginfo package. This might be caused by: - binary being compiled without debugging information - debugging information being removed from the binary by a build script - rpmbuild failing to extract debugging information from a binary in a buildroot because of permissions (eg. suid binaries, binaries without executable flag set) affected binary: /usr/libexec/openssh/gnome-ssh-askpass affected package: openssh-askpass-5.3p1-52.el6_1.2.i686 binary doesn't contain debug sections (it was probably stripped) affected binary file mode: 100755 This issue can be investigated by using eu-readelf tool from the elfutils package. Use `eu-readelf --notes /path/to/binary` to get build ID of a binary. Then check that the debuginfo package does not contain /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/<aa>/<bbbbbbbb>, where <aa> are the first two chars of the build ID, and <bbbbbbbb> is the rest of it. It should be a symlink pointing back to the binary. (This bug was detected and filed by a script.)
can you look at openssh-5.8p2-19.fc17.src.rpm if there is the bug repaired?
The bug is not fixed there. gnome-ssh-askpass is stripped when installed. openssh.spec: %if ! %{no_gnome_askpass} install -s contrib/gnome-ssh-askpass $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libexecdir}/openssh/gnome-ssh-askpass %endif That -s option (== --strip) shouldn't be there. Rpmbuild extracts debug sections from binaries in buildroot, so the binaries must be installed there without stripping the debug sections.
ok , can you test openssh-5.8p2-20.fc17
The issue is fixed in openssh-5.8p2-20.fc17.
