missing debug symbols for dino dependencies |

It seems just the debug symbols for dino weren't quite enough to get
good info. I also need debug symbols for the other dependencies. For
sure glib or libglib, whichever it is. If there are other dependencies
that could have debug output enabled, that would probably be helpful as
well.

Sounds fair. (looks like this wasn't closed, I'll try to close it now)
