pdb files get deployed

[egreiner]

Hi, I found some pdb files in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Chocolatey GUI chocolatey.pdb chocolateygui.pdb MahApps... Mindscape...

Afaik these files are for Visual Studio debugging sessions only, no need to deploy.

Chocolatey GUI v0.16.0

That is not entirely correct. PDB files are also useful when exceptions occur in the application as some information would not be available in the logs when these are not included. Some of the information I know of that wouldn't be available without these files would be: The file the exception occurred in, and which line the exception happened on (Both of which are useful when tracking down issues).

It appears that this question has been answered. I'll go ahead and close it. We can always re-open it in the future.
