    Presumably the new Suse release has moved to version 3 of gcc, which
    uses DWARF debugging data instead of stabs?
    
    That is only the default though, so you can compile -gstabs+ and use
    the old version of ups if you want.

    Not a problem that I remember seeing, but I'm using the cvs version
    rather than the last beta.
