I wrote a python script MXSymbolicate to symbolicate crash reports produced by MetricKit. To symbolicate a given frame, it needs the symbol file for that frame's library. For system libraries, my system only has the requisite files on disk if I've plugged an iOS device of that type at that iOS version into my computer at some point (I assume these symbol files from the device are generated by Xcode when it's preparing to debug on a new device). All these different versions of the symbol files take up a fair bit of space on my machine over time, and it means the symbolication process isn't very portable.
Is there a better way to get ahold of symbol files for system libraries? Or is the expectation that we (as third party developers) only symbolicate the frames from our own apps?
