[Touch-packages] [Bug 1517257] Re: apport-retrace should install and use gdb for target release
Idea from sprint discussion: In apport: - Don't try to run gdb from the retracing target sandbox - Add --gdb-root argument to apport-retrace that will set PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and possibly some env var to specify the gdb plugin dir to appropriate subdirs of . Calling "gdb" should then prefer running gdb from that dir. In the retracer deployment: - add --gdb-root on the sandbox with the same release but the host's native architecture - Ensure that gdb is installed in that -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1517257 Title: apport-retrace should install and use gdb for target release Status in Apport: Triaged Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: apport-retrace will use the version of gdb installed on the system performing the retrace.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1517257] Re: apport-retrace should install and use gdb for target release
I reverted http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~apport- hackers/apport/trunk/revision/3076 in http://bazaar.launchpad.net /~apport-hackers/apport/trunk/revision/3080. This cannot work like this as we need a gdb command which can actually run on the host. This is not the case when processing crashes from foreign architectures. This is already breaking with an i386 sandbox on amd64: $ file /tmp/si386/usr/bin/gdb /tmp/si386/usr/bin/gdb: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=4797df5acda65947a8d421d67e9bc772986ca5ba, stripped $ ldd /tmp/si386/usr/bin/gdb not a dynamic executable $ /tmp/si386/usr/bin/gdb bash: /tmp/si386/usr/bin/gdb: not found This could be made to work with some multi-arch magic on the host, but it will break completely when trying to retrace armhf or ppc reports. So we'd need to download the apt indexes twice: once for the target arch and downloading the debs/ddebs, and another time for downloading gdb and gdb-multiarch for the host architecture. This is prohibitively expensive when doing it every time, so we need to add a lot of local caching for that. This is also a lot of work, I'm afraid. ** Changed in: apport Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Changed in: apport Status: Fix Released => Triaged ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Triaged ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu) Assignee: Martin Pitt (pitti) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apport in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1517257 Title: apport-retrace should install and use gdb for target release Status in Apport: Triaged Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: apport-retrace will use the version of gdb installed on the system performing the retrace.
