In case you are building a kernel version >= 5.8, make sure you have installed at least [dwarves >= 1.16.0](https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/dwarves).
Unfortunately, this version is currently only available in the Debian Testing and Debian Unstable repositories. To work around this issue, we describe two options:
1. You may add the Debian Testing repository to your APT sources as described [here](https://serverfault.com/a/382101) and install the newer `dwarves` package as follows:
```shell
apt install -t testing dwarves
```
2. Alternatively, you may [download](https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/dwarves) the newer `dwarves` (>= 1.16) package from the Debian website and install the package manually, for example:
```shell
wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/d/dwarves-dfsg/dwarves_1.17-1_amd64.deb
apt install ./dwarves_1.17-1_amd64.deb
```
#### Obtaining the source
```bash
