I do not know any section would be present in both files (except .note.* like .note.build-id and at least .shstrlab). .dynsym is always needed in the primary file so there is no need to have in in the .debug file: /bin/bash [ 5] .dynsym DYNSYM 0000000000403898 003898 00c588 18 A 28 1 8 /usr/lib/debug/bin/bash.debug|grep dynsym [ 5] .dynsym NOBITS 0000000000403860 000248 00c588 18 A 6 1 8 > And AFAIK we end up with two > copies of these minsyms. One or the other seems unneeded. There will be both .dynsym and .symtab where the first should be a subset of the second; but GDB cannoy depend on the fact it should be a subset. Regards, Jan
