Specifying a debuginfo path independently of sysroot

- Subject: Specifying a debuginfo path independently of sysroot
Hello,
I was wondering if it was possible to pass a custom debuginfo path
from frysk to libdwfl without using the -sysroot switch. For example,
suppose I have /my/path/to/program and its debug file is /my/path/
to/.debug/program. This works with gdb, and the callback documentation
in libdwfl.h (line 242) suggests that libdwfl supports this idiom, as
well.
If this is not currently possible, I was wondering if it might be
desirable to allow for this. I wouldn't mind taking a crack at
implementing this, if given an idea as to what semantics would be
desired.
Thanks,
Ray
