dbus package

dbgsym packages exist but are empty

Asked by Gary

While trying to use the debug symbols for dbus I noticed that the dbgsym packages are all empty.

find . -name "*dbgsym*.*deb" -print -exec dpkg -c {} \;
./libdbus-1-3-dbgsym_1.6.18-0ubuntu4.3_i386.ddeb
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-03 11:26 ./
./libdbus-1-dev-dbgsym_1.6.18-0ubuntu4.3_i386.ddeb
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-03 11:26 ./
./dbus-dbgsym_1.6.18-0ubuntu4.3_i386.ddeb
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-03 11:26 ./
./dbus-x11-dbgsym_1.6.18-0ubuntu4.3_i386.ddeb
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-03 11:26 ./

These were built locally but the ones in the ddeb repository show the same.

Is this on purpose?

as a note the current dbg package has most of what I would expect in a dbgsym package.

After more investigation this might not be really a dbus question becaue multiple packages generate empty dgbsym packages.
