Package: libc6-i386
Version: 2.31-9
Severity: normal

I guess the (subject) ^^ is by mistake and not intentional. If that is indeed
the case, please fix the packaging so that a stripped library is installed as
expected.

Otherwise, please disregard this report and I am sorry about the noise.

Have a nice day,
Daniel

Nope the bug has really been fixed. What happens there is that we don't
remove the non-dynamic symbol table so that GDB can still work on
multithreaded programs, but the debug symbols are not present. You can
check that yourself by running strip --strip-debug on (a copy of) those
files and check that they are unchanged.
