Package: gdb
Version: 13.1-3
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: duncan82...@live.ca
Dear Maintainer,
I have a small project built with C and Rust using Meson. When I build
the project and try to set a breakpoint with tab-completion, GDB exits
with a std::length_error, seemingly only for some symbols.
I can't produce it with a Cargo-built program, but I can with a skeleton
Meson project, which I'll refer to for the rest of this report:
$ mkdir proj # or whatever
$ cd $_
$ meson init -l rust
[...]
$ meson setup build
[...]
$ meson compile -C build
[...]
$ gdb ./build/proj
[...]

Fatal signal: Aborted
----- Backtrace -----
[below]
---------------------
A fatal error internal to GDB has been detected, further
debugging is not possible. GDB will now terminate.
This is a bug, please report it. For instructions, see:
<https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/bugs/>.
Aborted (core dumped)
The executable does work in lldb. Most of the rest of GDB probably
works, too; the completion seems to be the only broken thing.
A bunch of letters aside from 'c' (e.g. 'l', 'w') also crash; my guess
is that there's a bunch of functions that mess GDB up, and they're in
core:: or similar.
I'm running rustc from rustup, version
rustc 1.72.0-nightly (d59363ad0 2023-06-01)
I originally found it with
rustc 1.71.0-nightly (5ea3f0ae0 2023-05-23)
I've attached the backtrace below; my apologies for the missing symbols
before the abort(). It seems to be in a C++ destructor, but I can't
figure out which (or which package provides the symbols in question.)
