Public bug reported:
gdb is now linked against python 3 but python 3 is incompatible with
libstdc++'s pretty printers:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 4, in <module>
File "/usr/share/gcc-4.8/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.py", line 54
raise ValueError, "Cannot find type %s::%s" % (str(orig), name)
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
/home/ruediger/.gdbinit:7: Error in sourced command file:
Error while executing Python code.
There is a proposed patch but it wasn't upstreamed yet: http://www.mail-
archive.com/[email protected]/msg65185.html
I'd propose either to continue using python2 for gdb, fixing the details
to get the patch upstream, or use a patched version downstream for now.
