I have troubles because gdb (6.0-2) seems not to understand that gcc (3.4.3) produces the debug information (with -g option).
When I invoke gdb it replies:
[...]
(no debugging symbols found)...Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/libthread_db.so.1".
and it does not allow me to view source code.
This happens in Mandrake 10.0 distribution with Grass5.4.
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
Damiano

a) make sure you didn't strip the debug info out after putting it in,
i.e. don't use LDFLAGS="-s" in the ./configure step.
b) Compiling with CFLAGS="-g" will of course only add debug hooks into
what you are compiling. It won't help you debug external libraries, e.g.
libthread_db.so from GNU libc6.
