I am sure rpmlint used to indicate when debuginfos were empty.
It did, and it still does. But this package is not empty:
[rishi@ginger x86_64]$ rpm --list -qp
osmo-debuginfo-0.2.4-5.fc11.x86_64.rpm /usr/lib/debug
/usr/lib/debug/.build-id
/usr/lib/debug/.build-id/97
/usr/lib/debug/.build-id/97/8fa669630401596774b8c60d2ed8e857becc26
/usr/lib/debug/.build-id/97/8fa669630401596774b8c60d2ed8e857becc26.debug
/usr/lib/debug/usr
/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin
/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/osmo.debug
On the other hand, as mentioned in my first mail about these a week or so ago,
catching the above case (debuginfo with no sources) was only recently
implemented upstream, there's no release out with it yet:
