I want to install a visual/graphic debugger on my Mandriva 2006 system. dbg
is already installed. I've done a little googling and found ddd and it
sounds reasonably nice--partly because I am a kde person and it uses qt3 (or,
iiuc, optionally, the gnome counterpart).
Any strong reasons why ddd is not a good choice, or something else is a (much)
better choice?

DDD doesn't use the GNOME or Qt/KDE libraries, instead it uses the
Motif widget toolkit, the same as NEdit. It is a graphical shell which
sits on top of gdb (or several other debuggers). I use it regularly, and
much prefer it to using gdb on the command line, however if you're a KDE
kind of person you may prefer kgdb (http://www.kdbg.org/). There was
also some work being done to port DDD to use the GTK+ libraries, but it
seems to have ground to a halt.
Regards,
Chris
