Package: gdb Version: 6.4.90.dfsg-1 Severity: important
When trying to debug Kaffe on x86_64, I ran into the following problem: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Desktop/kaffe/test/awt/WidgetsDemo$ KAFFE_DEBUG=gdb /tmp/kafff/bin/kaffe GNU gdb 6.4.90-debian Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Use the "file" or "exec-file" command. (gdb) Searching for .gnu.hash in the BTS turns up another, unrelated bug report also involving use of gdb on x86_64. I assume it has been fixed in the 6.6 version, but that one is still in unstable, so I'd like to document the bug for the version in testing. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gdb depends on: ii libc6 2.6.1-1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20070825-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.2-3 GNU readline and history libraries gdb recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
