trace symbols ???

[ToddAndMargo]

Dear Fedora Xfce,

How do I do this is Fedora 30 and Xfce 4.13?

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/StackTraces#What_are_debugging_symbols.2C_and...

What are debugging symbols, and why are they important?

When a program is compiled with special switches to generate
      debugging symbols (the -g compiler switch) extra information
      is stored in the program file. This information can be used
      to generate a stack trace that contains much more information,
      such as the exact line number of the source file where things
      went wrong. Without this information it is very hard to figure
      out what went wrong by looking at the stack trace.

I have been asked to do this by
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15172#c2

Many thanks,
-T

I think you can install the debuginfo versions for the packages.
Look at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/StackTraces (this is not
about Xfce, but just shows some examples).

What would the DNF command be to install the debug version
of Thunar?

The commands are on the wiki page I listed:

dnf debuginfo-install Thunar

or

dnf --enablerepo=fedora-debuginfo --enablerepo=updates-debuginfo \
       install Thunar-debuginfo Thunar-debugsource

Thank you.  Got gdb working with it nicely.
