Public bug reported:
apport's test test_add_gdb_info_abort_glib has been failing for a bit,
since zesty(?), now. Digging into this matter I discovered that using
gdb to "print __glib_assert_msg" is resulting in different behavior.
With the generated binary, it used to return the following:
$2 = 0x7fadc0 "ERROR:<stdin>:2:main: assertion failed (1 < 0): (1 < 0)"
However, now I am seeing:
(gdb) print __glib_assert_msg
$1 = 1332592064
(gdb) print (char*) __glib_assert_msg
$2 = 0x4f6dbdc0 <error: Cannot access memory at address 0x4f6dbdc0>
This seems to be a regression in gdb itself, I've added an apport task
though to track the disabling of the autopkgtest which utilizes this
command.
