[Crash-utility] Debuginfo packages for Ubuntu 12.04

[Ku, Eugene]

This information in Systemtap is identical to CrashdumpRecipe, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/CrashdumpRecipe.  Both pages point to http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux/ but it does not contain any package for 3.5.0-* or 3.8.0-* kernel.

Regards,

Eugene

In order to run crash to analyze crash dump from Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, we need a matching debugging Linux kernel module, vmlinux.  Do you know if there is repository for all released Ubuntu kernel debuginfo packages?  I have searched Ubunut and Debian web sites but could not find such a site.  The closest thing I have found is http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux/; however it only has linux-image-3.2.0-* ddeb packages.  For Ubuntu 12.04 LTS it has delivered 3.2.0-*, 3.5.0-* and 3.8.0-* kernels.  These ddeb packages are also huge, more than 600MB each.  If there is a repository for vmlinux files only, that will be even better.

Take a look at the advice for using Systemtap with Ubuntu (the
debuginfo requirements are the same):
