# We install a collection of hooks for gdb that make it easier to debug
# executables linked against libpython (such as /usr/lib/python itself)
#
# These hooks are implemented in Python itself
#
# We'll install them into the same path as the library, with a -gdb.py suffix
# e.g.
# /usr/lib/libpython2.6.so.1.0-gdb.py
#
# It would be better to put them in the -debuginfo subpackage e.g. here:
# /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/libpython2.6.so.1.0.debug-gdb.py
# but unfortunately it's hard to add custom content to a debuginfo subpackage
#
# See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/EasierPythonDebugging for more
# information
