I did this once but history wasn't long enough. Now I get:
pkg install pkg:/developer/debug/gdb
Creating Plan (Solver setup): \
pkg install: No matching version of developer/debug/gdb can be installed:
Reject: pkg://openindiana.org/developer/debug/[email protected]
Reason: This version is excluded by installed incorporation
consolidation/userland/[email protected]
This happens because you haven't updated your OI installation for a
while. The latest userland-incorporation is 0.5.11-2025.0.0.31780. You
have to run "pfexec pkg update -v" in order to update your system. This
will create a new boot environment and you need to reboot into that.
Background: userland-incorporation is a meta package that creates a
baseline of all oi-userland packages that work together (or rather
should work together). It is incremented with every successfully
published PR.
In a perfect world you would be able to install an appropriate version
of gdb (the one that was recent when your version of
userland-incorporation has been created). But as we have limited
resources we need to "clean up" the repository.
When this happens only the latest FMRI's of all available packages will
be kept. This is necessary because when the amount of package revisions
will grow, pkg operations will need more memory and time to finish. When
a certain limit is reached pkg operations can get really slow and blow
low memory installations.

Why did "pkg search gdb" not find it?

Where is it? I am running:

I've added the two other publishers but find no mention of gdb or any other
debugger for binary files using pkg search with anything I can think of that is
relevant.
Really a compiler without a debugger? Gad!
Thanks,Reg
pkg install pkg:/developer/debug/gdb
pkg contents pkg:/developer/debug/gdb
