Description Need Real Name 2003-01-09 07:54:02 EST

Description of problem:
gdb complains about been unable to debug pthreads.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gdb-5.3post-0.20021129.4

How reproducible:

  printf("test\n");
  return 0;
}
$ gcc -g test.c
$ gdb a.out

Comment 1 Elena Zannoni 2003-01-10 12:09:30 EST

Yes, this is (unfortunately) expected behavior. Gdb has not been ported yet to
work with the new NPTL thread library.
However, gdb should behave correctly if the program has no threads.

Comment 2 Shawn Walker 2003-01-20 02:39:59 EST

What's the timeframe looking like on getting GDB to work with the new threaded
system?

Comment 3 Elena Zannoni 2003-01-20 10:28:59 EST

There is a patch in the next beta.
I am closing this bug report. If there are more problems, let's open new ones,
against the next beta.
