Hello Ryan, I believe I have a different error than yours on a "Fedora Linux 35 Container" but my error is exactly at the same place as yours.
But to your problem: It looks like the `$i` has been replaced nothing by substitution. Compare the output: At the top: `[...]match($i,\".*lpython.*\")[...]` In the error message below: `[...]match(,".*lpython.*")[...]` It looks like `awk` gets the command line without `$i`. The problem is likely in file source-builder/config/gdb-common-1.cfg line 111 and line 117. May I suggest to try to comment out line 117 and 118 with an `#` (or replace them somehow). Then the gdb should build. The question is why the `$i` disappears? I have seen such things in Makefiles. There, you would need to write `$$i` to prevent substitution. Does "Mingw64" use an unusual `sh`? Maybe replacing all `sh` with a link to `bash` solves this?
