Package: gdb Version: 7.1-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Debugging even the most simple c program fails on my hurd installation (fwiw I downloaded debian-hurd-17042010-qemu.img.tar.gz prepared by Jose and installed some development stuff; the system is running under kvm). Searching the web yielded this discussion from 2008 but I don't understand the details discussed there: http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-h...@gnu.org/msg16180.html Here's what happens and how to reproduce this problem: $ echo 'int main(){return 0;}' > trivial.c && make trivial CFLAGS=-ggdb && gdb ./trivial cc -ggdb trivial.c -o trivial GNU gdb (GDB) 7.1-debian Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
