[Bug 1470097] Re: Unity does not support cpus without sse4
Ok, so...
I've prepared a SRU for getting these ddebs built, the branch is
building at https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-
service/+archive/ubuntu/landing-027/+packages then if you use this PPA
(packages should be ready in few minutes), you should be able to get the
*-dbgsym packages installed (even before they actually land in distro)
