For the rolling Debian suites, the main and dbgsym archives are often out of sync, the dbgsym packages updates sometimes appear first and sometimes second. Keeping foo/foo-dbgsym in sync is strongly needed since old or new dbgsym has zero value for debugging and just because the archives are currently not in sync, that doesn't mean one wants out of sync dbgsyms to be removed. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
