What about changing ^ as well to match workdir names? I know it works as it
is now and it might be useful to know from which PR the PN-dbg files are,
but as we don't depend on PR in WORKDIR maybe we don't need it in
/usr/src/debug as well anymore.
The interesting side-effect of this is that for DISTROs which still use PR
(e.g. webOS OSE), the difference in -fdebug-prefix-map causes all binaries
to be slightly different when rebuilt with different PR (due to this path,
even when otherwise they are binary reproducible) and when the number of
digits in PR changes (e.g. from r9 to r10) it also results in slightly
bigger binaries (and more unnecessary changes in buildhistory diffs).
For example this foo binary, the difference between "new" and "old" is
extra patch applied in SRC_URI (which doesn't affect the foo binary, but
was the reason for PR bump).
And the binary is bigger with r10, identical with r6 and slightly different
due to debug-prefix-map between r6 and r7:
