Yichen,
Sorry it took me a long time to respond. debuginfo rpms were not
produced for 17.10 and 18.01 because of a side affect of a "fix" to work
around a problem with rpmbuild.
The plan is to restore the building of debuginfo rpms in 18.04 and
subsequent releases.
This is documented in
https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1227

Hi, Thomas,
Just want to revive this thread… Do we know when can we have this
fixed? We are testing and will likely to ship with VPP 18.04 once the
final release comes out. Having the debuginfo RPM is **very**
important in our product, as it will give clues when VPP crashes.
Given it has been broken for 6months+, we would really need your helps
so that we have the debuginfo RPM before we finalize our code.
Thanks very much!
Regards,
Yichen

'make pkg-rpm' is currently not generating an RPM with debug
symbols. There is a bug in rpmbuild for packages with short names
(i.e. - vpp) that was not allowing RPMs to be built upstream in
CentOS and RHEL. The work around is to add a -0 to the package
name to make it long enough. Much later after this change was
merged, it was discovered that the debug RPM was not being built.
Thomas Herbert is tracking the issue. rpmbuild has been fixed in
Fedora but that fix has not been pulled into CentOS or RHEL. Not
sure when it will make it. Thomas can give more details, I am just
regurgitating what he previously reported to me.

Back in VPP 17.07 there used to be an RPM package called
vpp-debuginfo-*.x86_64.rpm, but that package is no longer
installed on nexus.fd.io<http://nexus.fd.io>starting with
release 17.10
https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.stable.1707.centos7/io/fd/vpp/vpp-debuginfo/17.07.01-release.x86_64/vpp-debuginfo-17.07.01-release.x86_64.rpm
Thanks,
