Hi, I'm having problems with linaro-gdb. I'm using debian wheezy on my BBB (build with the script from RobertCNelson) and have installed Qt on it. QT applications are working on my BBB.
But when I try to debug my local debugger of qtcreator fails with an error message: "The selected build of GDB does not support Python scripting.It cannot be used in Qt Creator." I found out that this is a HOST problem. The gdb of the linaro toolchain (gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2014.03_linux) which I was using to compile everything seems to be compiled without python support. *~/gdb-linaro-7.6-2013.05/gdb/gdbserver$ /usr/local/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2014.03_linux/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gdbGNU gdb (crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-4.8-2014.03 - Linaro GCC 2014.03) 7.6.1-2013.10Copyright (C) 2013 Free Software Foundation, Inc.License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law.
