Description mark preston 2026-07-12 23:20:21 UTC
after updating to kde plasma 6.7.2 gdb started crashing on me when trying to debug issues with kwin_wayland becoming unresponsive.  Now i can debug kwin and report those issues.

Starting debugger gdb --nw --nx --batch --init-eval-command=set debuginfod enabled on --command=/tmp/drkonqi.iTLays --command=/tmp/drkonqi.yNCtao --core=/home/mark.preston/.cache/drkonqi/cores/2026-07-12T19:01:21.301-vYLKJt/core /usr/bin/kwin_wayland
Downloading separate debug info for /usr/bin/kwin_wayland...

---------------------
A fatal error internal to GDB has been detected, further
debugging is not possible.  GDB will now terminate.

This is a bug, please report it.  For instructions, see:
<https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/bugs/>.

Debugging ended with exit code '11' and exit status 'CrashExit'




Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:
Fatal signal: Segmentation fault


Expected Results:
debug kwin

Additional Information:
this seems to have been reported to gnu in the gdb database as:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34390

which is also from a feorda 44 env but trying to debug a different crash.
I did not update that bug as i didn't want to have to create another account to be used just one time.
