Debug symbols?

Hi lövers! :neko:

I was browsing the Software Center (Ubuntu) when I found a package called love-dbg, which contains "debug symbols" for LÖVE. The description wasn't very informative. Any idea what they are? It wasn't installed (even though I have LÖVE installed) so I guess it's nothing mandatory. Just curious what it is. Haven't noticed any change after installation.

They are, in fact, debugging symbols. You use those when you would want to debug the engine itself.
