Missing separate debuginfos, use: debuginfo-install glibc-2.12-1.166.el6_7.7.x86_64

Question

I'm trying to analyze core dump file as I want to know why oom-killer kills my application. I use gdb to analyze the core dump file but always when I try to run gdb on my core dump, I get the following warning message:

Missing separate debuginfos, use: debuginfo-install glibc-2.12-1.166.el6_7.7.x86_64

GDP version : GNU gdb (GDB) Red Hat Enterprise Linux (7.2-83.el6)

Trying to debuginfo-install glibc-2.12-1.166.el6_7.7.x86_64 package results in:

Could not find debuginfo pkg for dependency package nss-softokn-freebl-3.14.3-23.el6_7.x86_64
No debuginfo packages available to instal

Answer 1

I get the following warning message

The warning message tells you exactly how to solve it:

sudo debuginfo-install glibc-2.12-1.166.el6_7.7.x86_64

You can also safely ignore it.
