Qt Debug Information Files, what are they?

[vivaladav]

Hi,

I noticed that, on Linux, when you add the "Qt Debug Information Files" package to your installation, the lib directory is populated with many libQt5xxx.so.x.y.z.debug files. I am assuming they are just shared libraries built in debug mode. Am I right?

Are any other files installed by that package?

Thanks

No, in those files there are the debug informations for the library as 'Qt Debug Information Files' properly says.

Fair enough, thanks.
