Hi Kjetil,

I'd think to use gdb for this. Sadly, I'm not that up to speed on it and
usually need help! hopefully someone like Jonathan or Julien can give the
exact instructions. Basically you start gdb, run the command you want
checking, end gdb which will have a full list that those clever people
(devs) understand and can be attached to a bug report.

I've directly included both in the hope one of them will say:

a) is it worth trying
b) how to do this for synaptic

Regards,

Phill.
