Hello,
I was trying to get a good backtrace for a segfault in linphone-desktop
(see http://issues.guix.gnu.org/47641). So I added a debug output for
liblinphone, and did the following:
Toggle snippet (4 lines)
./pre-inst-env guix environment --ad-hoc linphone-desktop \
linphone-desktop:debug liblinphone liblinphone:debug --no-grafts
The --no-grafts is to workaround http://issues.guix.gnu.org/48907.
Then I did the usual dance to get the GDB symbols resolved:
Toggle snippet (35 lines)

Reading symbols from /gnu/store/hmgy2vk1g1qjd7r0r5hk2m4csyj97ybx-profile/lib/debug//gnu/store/jlzdmlrmsrgxqj9yw1i1zy4lrf3r9d1n-linphone-desktop-4.2.5/bin/.linphone-real.debug...
But the liblinphone.so symbol table was not found.
This is due to linphone-desktop symlinking the lib/ directory of
liblinphone directly under its own, to workaround some FHS bogus
assumption. GDB only knows the shared library from that location (it
doesn't dereference symlink) and fails to find the symbols.
Thanks,
Maxim
