When the debuginfo package of a particular binary is installed, then the symbols are loaded whenever the binary is loaded or are the symbols only considered by tools like gdb and so on?
The latter.
Moreover ABRT does not install the whole debuginfo package but only copies the needed specific .debug files out of it somewhere - as know the ABRT people.
