## Message

```
std.debug.Dwarf: try to load the debuginfo from the debuginfod cache.

The previous mecanism for linux distributions to delivers debug info into `/usr/lib/debug` no longer seems in use.
the current mecanism often is using `debuginfod` (https://sourceware.org/elfutils/Debuginfod.html)

This commit only tries to load already available debuginfo but does not try to make any download requests.
the user can manually run `debuginfod-find debuginfo PATH` to populate the cache.

```
