Package: gdb Severity: whishlist Forwarded from http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=11394
Since 5.2, gdb has a small utility gcore that can generate a coredump of a running process. gcore is not included in the gdb package (it is in Fedora). I'd appreciate if it could be included since it can be very handy to take snapshots of processes in cases where it's not an option to attach to them directly with gdb (either because the process can't be unresponsive for long or because the people that have access to it aren't gdb savvy). In FC4 that script becomes /usr/bin/gcore. Also, the script itself apparently assumes it's accessible as "gcore". So I think it should be "gcore". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
