Package: gdb
Version: 8.3.1-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Gdb has supporting linking with GNU source-highlight since version 8.3
(released on May 11th). GNU source-highlight is already included in
Debian (libsource-highlight4v5 and libsource-highlight-dev), so it
shouldn't be too hard to link against source-highlight in the Debian
package of gdb.

Linking with source-highlight provides syntax highlighting in gdb's TUI.

Thanks,
Asher
