Seems to happen more frequently recently. The latest backtraces

ABRT once told me to use debuginfo-install, but it doesn't [or can't] get
that hint right if an app uses plugins/modules from separate packages.

It would be an improvement if it worked. With dozens of missing debuginfo
packages and missing "steps on how to reproduce a problem" the filed
tickets are close to useless.
