From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Description of problem: Using a very vanilla Redhat 9, with the emacs and gdb that comes on the RH 9 disks, emacs 21.2, and gdb 5.3..., I cannot c-c c-c out of my program back into gdb. I can do this when I run gdb from bash, and when I run gdb from xemacs. Under emacs, there is no indication that anything ever saw the c-c c-c. This also when I completely eliminate by .emacs and any non-standard emacs initializations. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): emacs 21.2.2-33 gdb 5.3post-0.20021129.18 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. enter emacs 2. start gdb (m-x gdb) 3. run your program 4. c-c c-c 5. ??? 6. Lose your profit Actual Results: Nothing happened Expected Results: Expected to break out of the program back into gdb 9 (which is what happens in xemacs and bash) Additional info: I couldn't find the WMDs either, I looked all around my neighborhood.
#include <stdio.h> void main() { for (;;) { printf ("turn world\n"); } }
This is fixed in 21.3 AFAICT. Can you try that and if you still have problems, please reopen this bug.
Urm, then again I can't reproduce the problem with 21.2...
Hi Jen, thanks for reopening it with a need for more info, it's always frustrating to see someone just close the bug immediately. Do you know of an rpm for emacs 21.3? I can't find one for Red Hat Enterprise (or Red Hat 9) at rpmfind.net or at a mirror for the Red Hat updates. I am on a gov't configuration controlled machine -- it is much easier to get approval to load an rpm than a tarball. Thanks, Jerry
If you have a RHEL3 subscription you should be able to pull down emacs-21.3 from RHN, otherwise the FC1 emacs probably needs rebuilding to run on RHL9 iirc. But like I say I can't reproduce your problem with the emacs in RHL9. So it could be a local problem at your end?
Closing for now. Please re-open if necessary.
