[acme@ssdandy linux]$ eu-addr2line -fi -e /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so 0x800c0
malloc
??:0
[acme@ssdandy linux]$ eu-addr2line -fi -e /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so 0x800b0
__malloc_check_init
??:0
[acme@ssdandy linux]$

If I do it over the debuginfo files:

[acme@ssdandy linux]$ addr2line -fi -e /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so.debug 0x800c0
__malloc_check_init
/usr/src/debug/glibc-2.17-c758a686/malloc/hooks.c:75
[acme@ssdandy linux]$ addr2line -fi -e /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so.debug 0x800b0
__malloc_check_init
/usr/src/debug/glibc-2.17-c758a686/malloc/hooks.c:82
[acme@ssdandy linux]$

Tomorrow I'll check for newer packages or any reports about problems
with debuginfo files, please let me know if you need any further info,

Off to bed, zzZzz
