Package: xxgdb Version: 1.12-13
Hello, xxgdb maintainer, When on commandline of an xterm doing 'xxgdb', it responds with 'xxgdb: all ptys in use'. This is complete bogus, as it doesnt even try to find a pseudo terminal (and if it tried, it would find plenty free ones. i checked.). This errormessage is produced in function open_master() from file calldbx.c . It is produced whenever SVR4 is not defined. It is not produced when SVR4 is defined. Therefore i conclude that SVR4 is not defined when debian package is built. If SVR4 is not defined, open_master does nothing but print that message. I am a bit surprised that no one else has complained about this, and that apparently you didn't notice this yourself either ; still this is a standard sarge install on i386, so i think it is a serious bug. This bug may be same as 150046, as 'ptmx' is used in open_master() when SVR4 is defined. have fun !
