Just to inform that some *debuginfo* packages have landed on some mirrors.
For example the latest kernel 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5 (and all his variants) 
has the corresponding debuginfo package.
I just saw that when i updated my local tree at home and was wondering 
why it was so slow just to fetch the latest kernel rpms .. of course 
with ~150mb of debuginfo per kernel variant , that makes the difference 
.. :D

example : http://mirrors.ircam.fr/pub/CentOS/5.3/updates/i386/RPMS/
