QE: There are tests for this in gdb's test suite: $ make check TESTS=gdb.debuginfod/*.exp [...] Running /home/rhel8/gdb/scl-gcc-toolset-10-rhel-8.3.0/gdb-9.2/build-x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu/gdb/testsuite/../../../gdb/testsuite/gdb.debuginfod/fetch_src_and_symbols.exp ... FAIL: gdb.debuginfod/fetch_src_and_symbols.exp: server init timeout === gdb Summary === # of expected passes 8 # of unexpected failures 1 The single FAILing test is expected. The system elfutils-debuginfod has different wording than newer versions. This initialization timeout may be safely ignored. Verified against gcc-toolset-10-gdb-9.2-2.el8. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For information on the advisory (new packages: gcc-toolset-10-gdb), and where to find the updated files, follow the link below.
