Please do post the list somewhere. Also, are you running i686 or x86_64?
46 packages is not reproducible on x86_64 (albeit running Rawhide not F18).

# setarch i686 repoquery --whatprovides /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/
nacl-devel-0:20110221-3.fc19.i686
# setarch i686 repoquery --whatprovides /usr/lib/debug/
nacl-devel-0:20110221-3.fc19.i686
# repoquery --whatprovides /usr/lib/debug/
nacl-devel-0:20110221-3.fc19.i686
# repoquery --whatprovides /usr/lib/debug/.build-id
nacl-devel-0:20110221-3.fc19.i686
# repoquery --whatprovides /usr/src/debug
filesystem-0:3.2-2.fc19.x86_64
