commit 2b02488f18ac4609de32a3b951a64797bc96359b
Author: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Dec 12 18:09:12 2017 +0800

    Mention user-visible find-dbgsym-packages in the changelog

commit b369493e97ac7d6323e688b17a849218fdc81e1f
Author: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Dec 12 17:48:08 2017 +0800

    Search for likely debug symbols packages based on the library path
    
    Various packages have bad meta-data about Build-Ids or
    are old-style manual -dbg packages with no meta-data.
    
    By searching which binary and source package the library path is from,
    it is possible to guestimate fairly accurate debug symbols packages.

commit 3877ed3e456be2c8c45ab1b9f617a9e11a42542a
Author: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Dec 12 17:21:58 2017 +0800

    Ignore eu-unstrip lines with a value in the DEBUGFILE column
    
    A value in the DEBUGFILE column means debug symbols were found,
    so the packages of them are already installed and can be ignored.

commit 8956a37ad0f5857abbb495aa562c1467385cfe11
Author: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Dec 12 16:45:09 2017 +0800

    Do not get field names from grep-aptavail
    
    Avoids needing to parse the output.

commit 7c49e86e90feffe45deec61411b85c10fa54cf79
Author: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Dec 12 11:13:40 2017 +0800

    Disable option processing of arguments to external commands
    
    Prevents filenames and build-ids from being confused with options.

commit e2edf264c5039e5f4106411953c7a64602850b9a
Author: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Dec 12 11:08:48 2017 +0800

    Switch from short options to long ones for eu-unstrip/eu-readelf/grep-aptavail
    
    They are more informative and understandable when reading the code.

commit fc748ffd5b524cd99b36d6c5bb752a821ddbbef1
Author: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Dec 12 10:55:30 2017 +0800

    Use IPC::System::Simple capturex instead of capture
    
    capturex avoids using the shell at all, which is the
    proper way to prevent shell meta-character injection.
    
    Also remove a comment that would use the shell if
    it were uncommented and changed from qq to qx.
