A way to get debug symbols
Metadata
Current evaluation
Requests debug-symbol distribution for diagnosing snap crashes; maintainer reports active design work, while uploadable components offer a partial path but are documented as not production ready.
Suggested action: keep open
Reason: Maintainer Sergiusens explicitly said this was “actively being worked on (design phase),” so it is acknowledged and valid rather than untriaged or stale. Snapcraft now supports uploadable components and documents debug symbols as a use case, but also labels components “under development and not production ready”; no automatic symbol-splitting implementation was found, leaving the requested capability incomplete.
