About

Entrypoint: src/charm.py.

When the Charm is installed, it:

• adds the ubuntu-debuginfod PPA
• installs ubuntu-debuginfod
• installs and sets up systemd services
  • debuginfod.service: provides files to debuggers via http (port 8002 default)
  • ubuntu-debuginfod-launchpad-poller.service & .timer: asks launchpad about new packages
  • ubuntu-debuginfod-celery.service: processes jobs and downloads debug symbols from archive

GitHub integration

We use some GitHub actions to test and release the charm code.

To retrieve the needed "CHARMHUB_TOKEN" for authentication (used by charmcraft via env CHARMCRAFT_AUTH), run:

charmcraft login --export /tmp/charmcreds.auth --charm ubuntu-debuginfod --permission=package-view --permission=package-manage-revisions --permission=package-manage-releases --channel "latest/edge" --channel "latest/stable" --ttl $((10 * 365 * 24 * 60 * 60))

Store the exported output text as a GitHub project secret under CHARMHUB_TOKEN (because that name is hardcoded in several "included" workflows).
