Only with recompiling the packages.
I'm not certain if Debian splits the debuginfo off into a separate package (like is done on the RH side), but that might need to be installed first.
We currently don't build debug packages for Debian's xymon package. They're (currently) optional in Debian and only present if the package's maintainer adds them explicitly. And we didn't need them for xymon so far.
Debug packages in Debian will change generally in the near future as automatically built debug packages will be available in Debian Unstable soon-ish. So I won't manually add debug packages to the official Debian package as they will become obsolete soon. And because adding them requires some additional review process.
So I'll try to add debug packages to my backports the classical way by specifying them manually.
P.S.: No new crashes since I disabled the WML generation yesterday, but that's probably not yet a significant amount of time. ;-)
Kind regards, Axel (one of Debian's xymon package maintainers)
