Bug ID: 377633
Summary: Remote debugging via gdbserver not working
Product: kdevelop
Version: 5.0.80
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: all build tools
Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: massimo.burch...@gmx.de
Target Milestone: ---
As I have never seen the remote gdb support working and because it is not
documented well, it became obvious to file a bug report here.
Moreover nearly nobody seems to use those features as I tried to get support on
many channels like Freenodes #kdevelop, #gdb, the kde forums and
stackoverflow...:

Using a script for starting a remote gdbserver:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
server="target-srv"
target="foo"
ssh "$server" "gdbserver --remote-debug --attach localhost:8888 \$(pgrep -fo
$target)"
The gdb script:
shell sleep 2
target remote target-srv:8888
Debugging starts and attaches to the remote process, but is never able to pause
or set any breakpoint.
I tried another approach by providing a script replacing the local gdb that
does the gdb session within ssh:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
server="target-srv"
target="foo"
ssh "$server" "gdb ${@:2} $target \$(pgrep -fo $target)"
Then it seems that KDevelop is parsing the gdb STDOUT but fails with
You need gdb 7.0.0 or higher
