           Summary: maintenance set python print-stack should be off by
                    default
           Product: gdb
           Version: archer
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: python
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: mjw@redhat.com


Having random python stack traces in the middle of your output really
isn't helpful. Unless you are hacking on python pretty printers of course.
For normal users the default really should be off.

Some examples where it really doesn't make sense and is utterly confusing:
PR12425 and PR12436

Leave the option there for people who want to hack on python pretty printers,
but flip the default please.
