 Do what again?
 
 If this happens in KDevelop, you should report the problem there.
 
 Alternatively, it might work if you get current GDB from sourceware.org as
 GDB used to not include the reason for temporary breakpoints.  This is just
 a guess though, as you haven't explained how you got the message.
 
 As an aside, it's proably best to make an initial report to gdb@sourcware.org
 where there is a wider audience.

I wanted to debug an application written on a different system and got some ABORT message - okay, I restarted it and stepped thru it, then once a couple of threads get started i get a message from gdb saying:
"Invalid gdb reply

The 'stopped' packet does not include the 'reason'
 field'.

Details
The gdb reply is: bla-bla-bla"

This made me smiling but doesn't get me any further. This message should probably be changed from bla-bla-bla to something that makes more sense ;)

Thanks,
Ron
