the program that i'm trying to debug using gdb

hello every one ..

i'm having a problem debugging a c program using GDB

the problem is i can't set a break point in source code after a for loop for
example the following code

1 //simple programe that counts from 1 to 3 and print Finished then Exit
2 //it's written to test a problem in GDB
3  
4 #include <stdio.h>
5 
6 void main()
7 {
8        int i = 0;
9        printf("Count from 1 to 3\n");
10 
11        for(i=0;i<3;i++)
12        {
13                printf("%i\n",i);
14        }
15 
16        printf("Finished\n");
17        printf("Now to Exit\n");
18 }


when i try to set a break point at line 16 printf("Finished\n"); (or any after
line 11) ,i get the following message :

No line 16 in file "loops_and_gdb.c".

i compile using gcc like that:
gcc loops_and_gdb.c -g -o loops_and_gdb.exe


info line 16 says : Line number 16 is out of range for "loops_and_gdb.c".

info source: (after break main and run) says :
Current source file is loops_and_gdb.c
Compilation directory is /home/mostafa/Documents/problem/loops_and_gdb
Located in /home/mostafa/Documents/problem/loops_and_gdb/loops_and_gdb.c
Contains 18 lines.
Source language is c.
Compiled with DWARF 2 debugging format.
Does not include preprocessor macro info.

a screen-shot for Insight debugger it shows the same problem
http://i53.tinypic.com/2l89c8g.jpg

i have built the Insight Debugger from source so it might indeed
missed up the GDB pakages...
i got it from
http://www.tech.dmu.ac.uk/~glapworth/src/insight/insight-6.8-1-gl.tar.gz

when i set a break point at line 11 for(i=0;i<3;i++) ,then run then step the
code continues to the end and i get :
0xb7724c2e in __libc_start_main () from /lib/libc.so.6

when i do step again i get :
Single stepping until exit from function __libc_start_main, 
which has no line number information.

Program exited with code 014.

This works fine for me.

Insight 6.8 is based on gdb 6.8, which is rather old.
Are you sure you tried the most recent gdb?
It prints the version when it starts up.

If you are trying a recent gdb then I suspect it is your compiler.

Is this problem still happening?  Tom did not manage to reproduce it, so I am
pinging one more time to see if any info is provided.
