Fedora and Red Hat 5 users can download debuginfo packages via yum.
Fedora users need to use debuginfo channel (yum --enablerepo
debuginfo ...), and I think it is the same for RHEL 5.

Red Hat provides debuginfo packages via their FTP site (ftp.redhat.com).
You don't need to be a RHN subscriber to get a debuginfo package.

Exactly. I don't want to upload a package which is really big.
