Where can I find gdb

Where can I find gdb

[Lengyel Sandor]

Some people say that gdb is klutzy. I used it through ddd and it seems quite acceptable.
However I cannot get a binary compatible with  gnat_3.12p (-4.deb) I use debian, and in
the old slink and for version 1.10, there was still ada support, which seemed to be
dropped for potatoe. I also checked Red-Hat gdb, and Ada is also not supported there.

I'm running Debian potato, with the most recent GNAT packge. You can just
keep the old slink GDB around - it works with the most recent GNAT. I don't
believe there are any major changes to worry about. (GDB 4.18 does not have
Ada support available - it doesn't have Linux PThread support available either
leaving a large group of people wondering why the Debian GDB maintainer
downgraded to the latest version. "Latest and greatest", I guess.)
