Well, the important part of my sentense is "generating a meaningful error report". It looks like Linux users are more likely able to compile from sources and start the debugger themselves. But for users that only install binary package, for the moment we have no clue about segfault and unexpected failures that may happen for various reasons. If we can provide a way to collect useful post-mortem debugging info, we will be able to fix those failure more easily. >> Of course, if someone knows how to do it in Linux, I will be more than >> happy to integrate it. >> > > On Linux, the options include: > > A) The super-easy way to do it is to have fgrun invoke gdb, > and then tell gdb to invoke fgfs. > > B) The fancy way to do it is using libgdb > http://www.cs.utah.edu/dept/old/texinfo/libgdb/libgdb.html > Thank you for the link.
