Debug NetworkManager with GDB
I'd like to debug [NetworkManager](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NetworkManager) by stepping through it using GDB. I assume I'll have to compile NetworkManager from source to get debug symbols since `file /usr/bin/NetworkManager` indicates that the binary is stripped, having no debug symbols.

I'm on Arch Linux and I can see that systemd starts NetworkManager. Preferably, I'd be able to debug a NetworkManager process started by systemd.
