Hi List.

After the latest update of my Arch Linux i got a hold of GDB 7.6 and for some apparent reason debugging from within lazarus has stopped working as it should. At least there is a problem
with breakpoints, since they are not always followed.

If i downgrade my GDB to 7.5.1 again debugging starts working again. Have anyone else experienced
this?

Ps. i'm using Lazarus of trunk (rev. 41103) and fpc 2.6.2

There is a known issue (in GDB) that leads to crashes when variables are inspected (via hint/watch or otherwise)
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/GDB_Debugger_Tips#Issues_with_GDB_7.5.9_or_7.6

There is another issue, if your GDB is translated (none English), see same wiki page.

An issue with breakpoints is not yet known.
You can produce a log (see bottom of that wiki page). But given the watches bug, even if an issue with breakpoints can be found and maybe fixed, it will not help much.
