No problem, thank you for following up.

So, here is maybe a starting point.

the ".gnu_debugaltlink" section of the main debuginfo file contains the
path to the alternate debuginfo file.

Let's examine the section headers of the of the main debuginfo file and
see if the .gnu_debugaltlink section is in there:

    $ readelf -S libsqlite3.so.0.8.6.debug | grep .gnu_debugaltlink
      [35] .gnu_debugaltlink PROGBITS         0000000000000000  00201f1c

Right it's in there.

Now, let's read its content, as a string:

    $ readelf --string-dump=.gnu_debugaltlink  libsqlite3.so.0.8.6.debug 

    String dump of section '.gnu_debugaltlink':
      [     0] 
/usr/lib/debug/dwz/components/sqlite.bst/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
      [    42]  ;?^UW+%^[w^\E^AC^K^:
    $ 

I hope the above is useful.

Thanks again!
