Description claire robinson 2014-01-22 21:10:19 CET 
Currently openmortal is in core release and core updates testing, using gdb on the version in testing (7.1) asks to use debuginfo-install openmortal-0.7.1-7.1.mga3.i586 to install the relevant debug symbols.

$ gdb openmortal

Missing separate debuginfos, use: debuginfo-install openmortal-0.7.1-7.1.mga3.i586

Due to not carrying debug medias on my local mirror it wasn't able to install it so added separate medias from distrib-coffee for core updates debug and core updates testing debug.

Before adding core updates testing debug (because i wasn't concentrating) i'd enabled core release debug and used debuginfo-install to try and install the 7.1 debug package. It happily installed the version 7 of that package when asked for version 7.1.

# debuginfo-install openmortal-0.7.1-7.1.mga3.i586

Mageia 3 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status 4 months ago.
http://blog.mageia.org/en/2014/11/26/lets-say-goodbye-to-mageia-3/ 

Mageia 3 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
