Description Pavel Zhukov 2014-08-02 09:48:25 UTC
Description of problem:

gdb is not able to set exception breakpoint properly. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gdb-7.7.1-15.fc20.i686
gcc-gnat-4.8.3-1.fc20.i686
gcc-debuginfo-4.8.3-1.fc20.i686

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build hello_world program with -g -ggdb -gnata flags enabled
2. gdb ./hello_world
3. catch exception

Actual results:
(gdb) catch exception 
Your Ada runtime appears to be missing some debugging information.
Cannot insert Ada exception catchpoint in this configuration.

Expected results:
(gdb) catch exception 
Catchpoint 1: all Ada exceptions

Additional info:

(gdb) break __gnat_raise_exception 
Breakpoint 2 at 0x804b5ac

Comment 1 Pavel Zhukov 2014-09-05 13:02:37 UTC
Reproduced with rawhide.
GDB is broken since F20. F19's version works fine.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2016-07-19 11:59:15 UTC
Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.
