Usually it is enough to have the debuginfo installed to get sensible
output from gdb. When the debuginfo packages first came to life there
wasn't much docu, maybe this has changed by now, but I wouldn't have
any links to such documentation. For me it always worked to just
install the debuginfo package and then gdb would be enriched with
proper symbols.
