It would be more worthwhile to create a new install in a separate directory,
and start small.
Only install base set of packages.
Then gradually add tools you need.
I don't know, why you are installing -debuginfo packages, but it is IMO
unlikely to cause issues by itself.
Sounds more like environmental issue, or issue triggered immediately following
the installation of the mentioned package.
