I see below that you used the Fedora/RHEL fpc-rpm's?

I don't know if this helps, but you do not only need libgdb.a, but also
some other files. You can download them here:
ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/fpc/contrib/libgdb/v6.2.1 

Further you have to make sure that there are no other copies of those
files somewhere on your system so that the linker may find them.

You tried to re-build the rpm, there's no documentation about that.
Maybe it's easier to build then ide manually. Extract the source, copy
the libgdb-files, go to the ide directory and do a 'make clean all'

But the rpm-approach should also work.
