Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1990729] Re: gdb crashes when run from VSCode

2022-09-29 Thread Lowell Boggs
The update that I just made does seem to have fixed the problem that I was
having with GDB when used under VS Code.

Thanks very much for the help!

2022-09-29 Thread Lowell Boggs
thanks, I set the pre-release items on the software updater, and triggered
an update.  But I saw nothing about gdb in the things it was going to
update.
Without me telling it to update all packages in the "Updates" menu of
software and updates, how do I make it update the gdb?
Thanks

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1990729] Re: gdb crashes when run from VSCode

2022-09-27 Thread Lowell Boggs
I have tried this but am not making much progress.

I was able to run the Software and Updates program and use the Developer 
Options menu to select the 
pre-released updates (jammy-proposed).  I then exited the updater and came back 
in to confirm that the red check mark was there and it was.

However, when I went to the next step, the "updates" page looks nothing
like the example documentation that you gave me.  Instead, I see the
file attached in updater-updates-menu.png

I did try changing the "subscribed to" from "custom" to "all updates".
However, when I pressed the close button at the bottom, the Sofware and
Updates menu vanished from the screen as if it had crashed.  When I
restarted it, I could that my selection of back to "custom", and
further, the red checkmark for the pre-released (jammy-proposed) was
turned off.

Each time I changed one of these two fields, it crashed the updater and
turned off the settings I had just made.

Is there a log I can send you that would be helpful?

Thanks,

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1990729] Re: gdb crashes when run from VSCode

2022-09-27 Thread Lowell Boggs
The above error seemed to be some kind of documentation problem, so I tried 
just running 
   make -k
To ignore errors and everything else make ok.  However, I am not able to figure 
out where the gdb executable is so that I can test it before running "make 
install".

Here are the places that I found non-script executables:

gdb: find . -executable -type f | grep -v '\.sh$\|\.py$' | xargs file | grep -v

Is one of these the gdb executable so I can test it?  Thanks

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1990729] Re: gdb crashes when run from VSCode

2022-09-27 Thread Lowell Boggs
Ok, the jammy-proposed link did not work for me -- apparently I am not
set up as a developer.

I'm running on the latest ubuntu (20.10.04.1) on a thinkpad.

So I tried installing package libgmp-dev and that installed ok.
However, when I tried running "make" in the gdb directory, I got a
different error this time -- earlier actually.

make[3]: Circular doc/bfd.stamp <- doc/bfd.texi dependency dropped.
  CCLD doc/chew.stamp
  GEN  doc/aoutx.stamp
  GEN  doc/archive.stamp
  GEN  doc/archures.stamp
  GEN  doc/bfdio.stamp
  GEN  doc/bfdt.stamp
  GEN  doc/bfdwin.stamp
  GEN  doc/cache.stamp

  GEN  doc/libbfd.stamp
  GEN  doc/linker.stamp
  GEN  doc/mmo.stamp
  GEN  doc/opncls.stamp
  GEN  doc/reloc.stamp
  GEN  doc/section.stamp
  GEN  doc/syms.stamp
  GEN  doc/targets.stamp
  MAKEINFO doc/bfd.info
/home/amida/gdb/gdb/missing: 81: makeinfo: not found
WARNING: 'makeinfo' is missing on your system.
 You should only need it if you modified a '.texi' file, or
 any other file indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual.
 You might want to install the Texinfo package:
 
 The spurious makeinfo call might also be the consequence of
 using a buggy 'make' (AIX, DU, IRIX), in which case you might
 want to install GNU make:
 
make[3]: *** [Makefile:1789: doc/bfd.info] Error 127

so I tried rm -f on the gdb directory, then re-cloned it using the https
link from jammy-proposed , then did ./configure and make but got the
same error.

Sorry for the annoyance

I attempted to install this:
   git clone -b applied/ubuntu/jammy-proposed 
https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdb

I then downloaded and cd'd into gdb and ran

   ./configure
   make

but got this error:

Then I tried to install GMP like this, but it failed

Should I try using the lboggsAmida link instead?  I'll try it.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your help!  I have never dealt with this bug system before.
Where can I find the details of the "proposed" that you mentioned?

Thanks again,
Lowell
