Package: gdb Version: 6.4.90.dfsg-1 Severity: normal While trying to debug a program on Debian/SPARC I loaded the binary and a core-dump into gdb. A simple "bt" then caused the following error (after displaying part of the backtrace, but not all of it):
/build/buildd/gdb-6.4.90.dfsg/gdb/regcache.c:175: internal-error: register_size: Assertion `regnum >= 0 && regnum < (NUM_REGS + NUM_PSEUDO_REGS)' failed. A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. Quit this debugging session? (y or n) I have seen this happen with different binaries and core-files. A sample set of input files can be provided. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: sparc (sparc64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-sparc64 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages gdb depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.2-2 GNU readline and history libraries gdb recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
