I'm using Slackware 12.1 and so far I've been unable to find any packaged debug libraries. I'm tempted to compile them myself with debug enabled but I expect that to take a little while mostly because of the effort of locating the proper libs. > (Ubuntu package names in brackets) > > xlib (libx11-6-dbg) > xcb (libxcb1-dbg, libx11-xcb1-dbg, possibly others) > gtk (libgtk2.0-0-dbg) > glib (libglib2.0-dbg) > gtk-gl-ext (libgtkglext1-dbg) > C Library (libc6-dbg) How different are Ubuntu's libraries (packages) compared to the bone stock ones straight from the project developers?

If I can identify the proper source code for the libraries then I will get another back trace. But it may take me a little while. I'm using system tools like 'locate' to try and find out more. Are there any library tools that might help me identify them? > PS.. Did you compile PCB with the default CFLAGS? (Which include "-g" > for debug output?) I was fairly certain that I was compiling with "-g" but I looked at the config.log and verified that I am. -Mark Stanley _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
