How to install debug packages?

Please tell me how to install debug packages in Arch ? I don't see them listed in the repo.

Thanks.

Re: How to install debug packages?

Arch packages are built without debug info by default - if you need it, you have to rebuild them yourself. The Arch Build System(ABS) is the best way to do this - check the wiki for details, and read man makepkg and man PKGBUILD.
