Hi, > From: Kenshi Muto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Debian CUPS has provided debug symbols (includes hpgltops also) as > cupsys-dbg package, since 1.2.2-2. > Although this is a different way from your question, it's more convenient > than rebuilding a package.
Convenience probably depends on what one is used to but that is no problem, I'm willing to learn new things. Previously I've done $ cd /local/lindi/debian/debian-cupsys $ DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="nostrip debug noopt" fakeroot apt-get --build source cupsys $ sudo dpkg -i cupsys*.deb $ gdb usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops (gdb) break main (gdb) run to get source level debuggability (I've used the approach for very many packages and even written a script to do it automatically). With this cupsys-dbg approach I seem to be able to get the same effect by doing $ cd /local/lindi/debian/debian-cupsys $ sudo apt-get install cupsys-dbg $ apt-get source cupsys $ gdb /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops (gdb) directory /local/lindi/debian/debian-cupsys/cupsys-1.2.7 (gdb) symbol-file /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/cups/filter/hpgltops (gdb) break main (gdb) run Does this look correct? best regards, Timo Lindfors -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
