Yes, it's enough to have your own library compiled with debug information. IMHO it's even better not to have unnecessary debug information because this improves performance and stability of gdb. > I would try the gdb 6.3 debian version, and see if that helps me. > Does anyone use any other gdb version or would there be a link somewhere on > supported compilers/debuggers? Debugging OOo with gdb6.3 is known to work in most cases (but still doesn't sometimes), older versions very often failed utterly - gdb is a rather buggy tool. Sorry for the bad news. Debugging large projects with many shared libraries still isn't gdbs favorite playground, so it's always a game of chance if you get the beast working. BTW: next time please don't leave a full quote in your replies. Reposting your complete problem description didn't add any information but a lot of noise.
