Bug ID: 28559
Summary: Shared libraries without execution permissions are
ignored
Product: debugedit
Version: unspecified
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: find-debuginfo
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: christian.morales.vega at gmail dot com
CC: debugedit at sourceware dot org
Target Milestone: ---
find-debuginfo only considers files with execution permissions
(https://sourceware.org/git/?p=debugedit.git;a=blob;f=scripts/find-debuginfo.in;h=b07a52fe4b983bc7c9c5e12414d68bb91bbe7ea3;hb=f62fdfc7e8ddb9887f91a021636a4b430c76ec05#l415).
But not everybody thinks giving execution permissions to shared libraries,
specially by default, is a good idea; but the debug information from them needs
to be extracted.
OpenSUSE even has this patch saying '-or -name "*.so*"'

Yup, that would be a leftover from rpm days, where the executable bit was
abused as a enabler/disabler for dependency generation and also debuginfo
generation. It was always a hack and makes even less sense now.
