Comment 17 for bug 156575

Hi Willian,

Super-thanks for working on this task.

'build_debug_symbols' argument for the `build` XMLRPC command is fine.

DDEBs are published in the DEBUG (purpose) archive for a distribution and will be published with:

`./scripts/publish-distro.py --primary-debug` (completely separate repo using NMAF)

once we create the needed DEBUG archive (well remembered).

The new archive flag (for controlling ddeb generation) will come later, for now 'build_debug_symbols' should be hardcoded as True only for building sources in the ubuntu PRIMARY archive (and the security ppa ...).

Regarding propagating changes to `pkg-create-dbgsym` to old series, I guess we can shelve the new version directly in the chroots instead submitting it via SRU (which it won't pass, I believe).
