Re: [Libunwind-devel] [PATCH] elf: Follow .gnu_debuglink when resolving function names |

Something a distro could easily modify, eg. provide the functions to
load additional elf files depending on debuglink or debug id, and some
ways to configure them.
Dunno whats the best approach, some weak or empty default function for
additional "resolves" ?
The patch above works for me BTW.
