I followed Geels' instructions above (thanks Dmitriy). Here is the version response after a successful build.
$ /usr/local/avr/bin/avr-gdb -v GNU gdb (GDB) 7.1 <snip> This GDB was configured as "--host=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --target=avr". <snip> The build log is attached, as well as a successful Eclipse session log with 7.1 just built, which did NOT work with 6.4 as stated in my previous post. Both logs are redacted of local information with ##### strings. Apologies for not turning off my zsh RPROMPT while running script. [Appears I can only do one attachment per post. Session log will follow.] ** Attachment added: "avr-gdb 7.1 build log from source under Lucid" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/50968543/build-log.txt -- gdb-avr is outdated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/407367 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
