Status in gcc-4.8 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gdb package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: gdb is now linked against python 3 but python 3 is incompatible with libstdc++'s pretty printers: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 4, in <module> File "/usr/share/gcc-4.8/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.py", line 54 raise ValueError, "Cannot find type %s::%s" % (str(orig), name) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax /home/ruediger/.gdbinit:7: Error in sourced command file: Error while executing Python code. There is a proposed patch but it wasn't upstreamed yet: http://www .mail-archive.com/gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org/msg65185.html I'd propose either to continue using python2 for gdb, fixing the details to get the patch upstream, or use a patched version downstream for now.
