 Description   

Current deb builds for mariadb do not include debug information. Debug info (at least for the standalone server binary and for embedded server binary) should be included, as otherwise it won't be possible to analyze bugs.

Re: MariaDB: Debug information not included in .deb packages
The mysqld.syms.gz file was missing from mariadb-server-51.files; I've added it and committed the fix.

In Debian and Ubuntu normal packages are not supposed to contain debug symbols, they are stipped when the binary packages are created.

Ubuntu provides automatically a facility that has the debug symbols, so that users can install them and get better stack traces. See details at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash#Debug_Symbol_Packages (and examples at http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/universe/m/mariadb-10.0/)

Since December 2015 Debian also generates automatic debug symbol packages, see e.g. http://snapshot.debian.org/package/mariadb-10.0/10.0.22-6/#mariadb-server-10.0-dbgsym_10.0.22-6
