Subject: [libgdb-dev] Undefined symbols in libgdb.a

Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2008 11:58:50 +0100

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: libgdb-dev
Version: 6.8-3
Severity: serious

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

fp-ide package needs libgdb.a to add support of debugger inside the IDE.
However the libgdb.a shipped by libgdb-dev package has some problems :
* Missing dependency to libbfd-dev virtual package or at least binutils-dev
  profiding it. Please have a look at the end of the log embedded in this mail.
You can get more information in http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=12636 and

How are you linking the library to cause this error?  --whole-archive?

This is not related to libgdb.

You need -liberty.

Also -lexpat.  Soon you'll need Python, too.

I'll update the dependencies if I can find where to pull libiberty from.

I'm using FPC which produces the attached linker script.

Oh right, this was fixed upstream but the fix may not be in Debian
yet.  #include foo.c instead of foo.h.

Version skew - that libiberty.a is from an older version of
binutils than this version of GDB.  The function is in GDB's version
of libiberty.

I have no idea what to do about that.  I don't want to have multiple
versions of libiberty installed... I will think about it.

Not yet, sorry.

I think the best solution would be to add the contents of libiberty.a
to libgdb.a at the end of the GDB build.

I have reported a bug with severity serious 509873 but this is still
pending. Without solving this bug we couldn't have any debugger support.

Cheers,

I'm trying to find time to work on it.  I'll do it as soon as I can,
or anyone is welcome to submit a patch.  I believe the planned fix is
already described in the bug log.

Closes: 33187 490046 494839 509873 512121 513816
Changes: 
 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.
