Yeah, it's clumsy.

If you are able, consider installing elfutils 0.178 or git-master
elfutils.  You can build it into a private directory and direct
systemtap to use it with $LD_LIBRARY_PATH.  With that available,
existing systemtap binaries can access our debuginfod server, and fetch
debug data for a selection of debian kernels.
