gdb (6.8.50.20090628-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New snapshot from trunk. The experimental packages used the
archer-tromey-python branch; the whole branch has not been merged
to trunk, but significant portions of it have, and will be in GDB 7.
So this includes some Python scripting support. Other highlights
since the last experimental package:
- Reverse debugging commands. With a remote target that supports
reverse debugging, you can step backwards as easily as forwards.
- Process record and replay, a native Linux implementation of
reverse debugging. Only 32-bit IA32 Linux is currently supported.
- MIPS/Linux hardware watchpoint support.
- Multi-byte and wide character set support, including wchar_t display.
- Inlined function support, including in backtrace and step/next/finish.
- Improved C++ template name parsing.
- Non-stop debugging (some threads remain running while others
are stopped in the debugger). Only implemented so far for i386,
x86-64, and powerpc.
- A bug fix for discontiguous code, e.g. as found in the Linux kernel
(Closes: #513816).
- A build fix that affected SPARC (Closes: #512121).
- A build fix for casts on hurd-i386 (Closes: #494839).
- A fix for debugging multi-threaded programs that call exec, including
Eclipse with the Sun JVM (Closes: #490046).
* Removed thread-db-multiple-libraries.patch. This let one GDB work with
both LinuxThreads and NPTL, but no Debian platform has both now.
* GDB now reads /etc/gdb/gdbinit at startup (Closes: #33187).
* Ship required libraries (libbfd, libopcodes, and libiberty) in
/usr/lib/gdb in the libgdb-dev package, in case binutils-dev's versions
are not close enough (Closes: #509873).
* Add dev package dependencies to libgdb-dev.
