gdb 6.8.50.20090628-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
gdb (6.8.50.20090628-1ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low * Merge with Debian; remaining changes: - debian/rules: on sparc, configure the 64bit build woth --disable-werror. - Support nocheck and parallel=<n> in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS. - lpia fix for running the check target. - Work around a build failure on the ia64 buildd. * Disable patches (not yet updated): pie-support-alt, pie-support-tests, handle-nodebuginfo-better. gdb (6.8.50.20090628-1) unstable; urgency=low * New snapshot from trunk. The experimental packages used the archer-tromey-python branch; the whole branch has not been merged to trunk, but significant portions of it have, and will be in GDB 7. So this includes some Python scripting support. Other highlights since the last experimental package: - Reverse debugging commands. With a remote target that supports reverse debugging, you can step backwards as easily as forwards. - Process record and replay, a native Linux implementation of reverse debugging. Only 32-bit IA32 Linux is currently supported. - MIPS/Linux hardware watchpoint support. - Multi-byte and wide character set support, including wchar_t display. - Inlined function support, including in backtrace and step/next/finish. - Improved C++ template name parsing. - Non-stop debugging (some threads remain running while others are stopped in the debugger). Only implemented so far for i386, x86-64, and powerpc. - A bug fix for discontiguous code, e.g. as found in the Linux kernel (Closes: #513816). - A build fix that affected SPARC (Closes: #512121). - A build fix for casts on hurd-i386 (Closes: #494839). - A fix for debugging multi-threaded programs that call exec, including Eclipse with the Sun JVM (Closes: #490046). * Removed thread-db-multiple-libraries.patch. This let one GDB work with both LinuxThreads and NPTL, but no Debian platform has both now. * GDB now reads /etc/gdb/gdbinit at startup (Closes: #33187). * Ship required libraries (libbfd, libopcodes, and libiberty) in /usr/lib/gdb in the libgdb-dev package, in case binutils-dev's versions are not close enough (Closes: #509873). * Add dev package dependencies to libgdb-dev. gdb (6.8.50.20090519.python-1) experimental; urgency=low * New snapshot from archer-tromey-python branch. * Update debhelper compatibility level to 7. * Update to Standards-Version: 3.8.1. gdb (6.8.50.20090116.python-1) experimental; urgency=low * New snapshot from archer-tromey-python branch. * Make sure that Python is enabled for the main gdb package. gdb (6.8.50.20081210.python-1) experimental; urgency=low * New snapshot from archer-tromey-python branch. gdb (6.8.50.20081120.python-1) experimental; urgency=low * Package archer-tromey-python branch for experimental. Highlights since GDB 6.8 (for more, see the NEWS file): - Python scripting support. This is experimental; the interfaces are subject to change. Some example scripts are packaged, including STL pretty-printers for libstdc++. - Improved preprocessor macro support. - Non-stop debugging support (for 32-bit i386 only). You can stop just one thread of interest while the others continue to run. - Improved tab completion, including C structure fields. - Faster remote debugging. - Compressed debug information support; the new "gold" linker can generate compressed debug sections. - New "find" command to search memory. - Native i386 debugger does not get confused about watchpoints when using "target remote" (Closes: #513678). * Build depend on zlib1g-dev and python-dev. * Removed bfd-get-mtime-less.patch, gdb-rbreak-quoting.patch, ia64-array-bound.patch, cp-support-uninit.patch, and m68k-nat-build-fix.patch, merged upstream. * Build depend on procps for testsuite cleanup calls to "kill". * Remove use of -p0 in series file (Closes: #484945). -- Matthias Klose <email address hidden> Mon, 06 Jul 2009 09:51:58 +0200
