DetailsDescription:
Currently, packages in [kde-unstable] are compiled same as stable ones without debug information. Since the purpose of beta releases is to test new features and report bugs before final version is released, whenever I find an issue I have to recompile required packages with `debug !strip` and `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug` or `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull` in order to create a useful bug report. It would be nice if all packages in [kde-unstable] are already compiled in that way. |

In my experience, beta releases are not particularly prone to crashes compared to the stable one. Adding debug packages only for unstable releases would add complexity to the build scripts for not too much gain. Hopefully we'll soon have debug packages globally.
