>> What is the difference between gdb-multiarch and arm-linux-gnueabihf-gdb ? Is it better to use gdb-multiarch ? For Ubuntu hosts from 12.04 onwards, gdb-multiarch is used as gdb client for debugging. As name indicates it is a common client to any architecture and not restricted to ARM.
Generally, all gdb clients are architecture independent because architecture specific part is handled in gdbserver itself. So, other than the name arm-linux-gnueabihf-gdb, I am guessing it is same as gdb-multiarch. Hope this helps.
