Bug ID: 458919
Summary: Debug As... (GDB) not available without okteta package
Product: kdevelop
Version: 5.8.220403
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: CPP Debugger
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The Archlinux package for kdevelop doesn't pull in okteta by default (it is an
optional package which may not be apparent to end users) resulting in the
"Debug As..." option being absent when using the GDB Support plugin. There's
no indication that anything is missing or incorrectly configured.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install kdevelop through pacman on Archlinux / Manjaro
2. Launch kdevelop (disable LLDB Support plugin if required)
3. Import a project
4. Right-click a CMake Target to find "Debug As..." in the context menu
OBSERVED RESULT
Without okteta, there is no "Debug As..." menu item when right-clicking a CMake
Target within kdevelop when using the GDB Support plugin. The option does
appear with LLDB Support enabled, which is the default; however, if LLDB is not
installed an error is thrown about being unable to run lldb-mi (a separate
issue; also interesting that the Debug menu appears despite missing okteta with
the LLDB Support plugin enabled but not with GDB!).
EXPECTED RESULT
The "Debug As..." context menu item should be visible regardless of the
presence of okteta with some kind of indication that the package is missing and
required if Archlinux packagers won't make okteta a required dependency,
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
