Package: gdb Version: 7.7.1+dfsg-5 Severity: important Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
I noticed a bug in the C++ demangler of GDB 7.7, that causes it to segfault when debugging certain binaries. GDB 7.4 in wheezy does not have this bug, so downgrading helps in my case. The bug is known upstream, but a fix has not been committed yet. Please track upstream and provide a fixed version once it has been released. Thank you. The upstream bug is: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17066 I noticed the bug when I ran into the following problem: https://bugreports.qt- project.org/browse/QTCREATORBUG-12450 -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (900, 'stable'), (50, 'testing-updates'), (50, 'unstable'), (50, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gdb depends on: ii libc6 2.19-13 ii libexpat1 2.1.0-6+b3 ii liblzma5 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2+b2 ii libncurses5 5.9+20140913-1 ii libpython2.7 2.7.8-11 ii libreadline6 6.3-8+b1 ii libtinfo5 5.9+20140913-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 Versions of packages gdb recommends: ii gdbserver 7.7.1+dfsg-5 ii libc6-dbg [libc-dbg] 2.19-13 Versions of packages gdb suggests: pn gdb-doc <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
