Debug builds? #1564

Description

I find myself often needing to manually build images with Node.js built in debug mode. Is there any reason not to have *-debug versions of all the images too? It'd be super convenient to be able to just add -debug to the end of the container tag and magically have all those handy debug symbols. 😅

I'm happy to lend a hand with making that happen, so long as we feel it's something worth having. Just want to check before I go doing something if there's a reason why we're not doing it currently.

    This would place a bigger burden on Docker's CI to build and push them - @tianon @yosifkit is this something you would be OK with?

    Yeah, true. That was one reason I was a bit uncertain about it. Just a question of if the value of debug symbols is worth the cost. 🤔

    I'm going to close this issue, as implementing it would have a high impact on build resources. It would also double the entries on https://hub.docker.com/_/node, turning the 2 page list into a 4 page one, making it more difficult to navigate.

    There hasn't been any general interest shown from other users either.
