# `package-builds-dbg-and-dbgsym-variants`

This package appears to build both -dbg and -dbgsym variants of a package. Only one package should contain the debug symbols

Usually the -dbg should be dropped in favour of the -dbgsym. However, in some cases (e.g. Python modules) the -dbg contains more than just the debug symbols. In these cases the -dbgsym should not be built.

Severity: | `warning`
Experimental: | `false`
