I just installed a fresh copy of Cygwin and gdb with setup-x86_64.exe.
However, gdb does not produce any output.

Installing gdb versions 7.9.1-1 and 7.10.1-1 work, anything newer doesn't.
Any ideas why?

You might try 'strace gdb' and see if that sheds any light on what's
failing.

I tried that but I couldn't see anything strange.

No error code?  Please show the output.

  pc> gdb -v
  pc> echo $?
0

I was asking for the strace output. It might just show the same DLL loading issues that Marco noticed, or it might show something more.


Also ldd `which gdb` is
fine.

Please show the output.

I tried the cygcheck Marco Atzeri suggested. I am not comfortable to send
the result to the list but I checked it.

Can you remove the sensitive parts and then send it?  It's hard for anyone on
the list to help you if you don't provide information about your installation.

I'll see what I can do.


As a result I cleaned up my path to just /bin which removed some duplicate
entries in cygcheck.out but gdb still doesn't work.

The only strange part I see in cygcheck.out is a slight mess up with my
installation, a result of my moving /c/cygwin64 to /c/mystuff/ncygwin64
after my first run of setup.exe, see below.  So what has changed between
gdb 7.10.1-1 and gdb 7.12.1-2?

Dependencies may have changed.  Have you checked that you have all dependencies
of whatever version you're trying to run?  Just re-running setup should take
care of that if that's the problem.

I've always installed every version with setup so the dependencies should have
been taken care of. And

  pc> cygcheck -c gdb
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
gdb                  9.2-1          OK

cygcheck doesn't check dependencies. But that doesn't appear to be the issue anyway.
