hi, i’ve recently updated to sles 11 (3.0.101-0.31-pae), and looking for kernel-debuginfo. Any pointers please?
Already tried zypper search -s kernel--debuginfo but it does not return anything.
thanks.

Have you subscribed to and enabled the Debuginfo repositories for your
version of SLES11?
For example, if you have SLES11 SP3 then you need to subscribe to
SLE11-SP3-Debuginfo-Core and SLE11-SP3-Debuginfo-Updates.
Check the output from “zypper lr”.

Whilst #2 suggests you did install from SP3 media #3 through #6 and #8 &
#9 all relate to SP1. Please can you post the output from “cat
/etc/*release”.
If all the repos match the same SP then I say to simply enable the two
Debuginfo repos but something isn’t quite right with your version vs
repos so that needs fixing first.

Okay so that matches the media which just leaves the question of why
it’s listing SP1 repos instead of SP3 ones.
Was this a fresh install of SP3 or upgrade from SP1?
Was the server registered with Novell (SUSE) Customer Center during or
post install?

it was installed from SP3; then registered to novell after which it allowed the updates… was hoping it would get the debuginfo, but ended up here.

Given your SLES11 SP3 server is configured to access SP1-related repos I
wouldn’t install any updates as they could cause you problems.
It’s probably a good idea if you log in to the Novell Customer Center
and check which SLES-related repos you have access to just to make sure
you see the SP3 ones.
If you do we’ll then look at fixing your repos.

Now Novell Customer Center has responded for me, the thing you should
check is that there are SLES11-SP3-* and SLE11-SP3-* repos listed under
My Products > Mirror Credentials.

Thanks simon. But i dont see any under Mirror credentials. perhaps i havent purchased any subscription.
Not sure how SP1 updates got into the system. I’ll clear the SP1 stuff.
One last que: Is it possible to get kernel-debuginfo without paying any subscriptions? Is that freely available, when the new version comes in?
Regards.

Ah if you haven’t bought a subscription you won’t be entitled to access
the update repositories.

Yes that I don’t understand.

No, SUSE don’t offer old versions of packages for free when new ones are
available. Whilst this is obviously for commercial reasons it makes
sense from a security aspect too.
