Debug symbols out of date?

Asked by Bram Stolk

I am using bionic updates repository, and I can't install the debug symbols for gnome-shell.

Is gnome-shell-dbgsym out of date, perhaps?

gnome-shell-dbgsym : Depends: gnome-shell (= 3.28.3+git20190124-0ubuntu18.04.1) but 3.28.3-0ubuntu0.18.04.4 is to be installed

This was due to a mis-configured system. My apologies.
