Why?  Can't you just remove the assertion and be done with it?

> /usr/lib64/debug/usr/lib64/libwebkitgtk-3.0.so.0.13.2.debug

Why does this matter?  The offsets extractor doesn't care about debug data.

But before doing that, all the useful debug information is copied to a ".debug" file, which is then installed inside /usr/lib/debug (the complete name of the file would be given by appending to that the path where the file is actually installed). The path to that file is then saved in the original file inside an ELF section called ".gnu_debuglink", so that gdb knows which file to load the symbols from.
