Hello,

I am an unstable/sid user on a vanilla x86-64 PC.

I am trying to debug some app code that uses libgtk+ 3. I would be
very helpful to also have debug symbols for this library.

My libgtk-3-0 is currently 3.22.7-2. Using aptitude, I tried to add libgtk-3-0-dbg (3.4.2.7+deb7u1). However, I get a conflict error
message requesting me to downgrade my libgtk-3-0... which is nearly
nuclear. =]

Is it difficult to get libgtk-3-0-dbg up to 3.22.7-2?

If I can help, please let me know.

Thanks,
Arpe

I tried to follow instructions from this page: https://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace

You shouldn't do the build as root.

You want libgtk-3-0-dbgsym from the debug archive.
See https://wiki.debian.org/AutomaticDebugPackages for how to enable it.

Any ideas?

You were already pointed to the debug archive, so you can use the
-dbgsym packages. Is there a problem with that?

To be clear, I have a vanilla x86-64 PC with unstable/sid installed.
Also, my network config is vanilla (no firewall).

Thanks,

Double facepalm! I missed this sentence on the wiki: :"If an
appropriate package was found you should just be able to install the appropriate debug package... and skip the rebuilding process in the
following instructions and go straight to running gdb."

Thanks,
Arpe
