Briefly, the code-logic for scanning .debug_info sections currently lives in the CLI (frysk.cli.hpd), which, for non-command-line apps such as fvalue (display a value in a program then quit) feels wrong. Instead the intent is to move that logic to a shared package - frysk.debuginfo - where the CLI, utilities, and the UI can all access it. thoughts (or a better name - one note on the name, it is _not_ symtab as that is too overloaded with the elf symtab), Andrew
