             Bug #: 14086
           Summary: gdb -quiet too chatty
           Product: gdb
           Version: unknown
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: fche@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified


When trying to invoke gdb in a wrapping sort of mode:

gdb -batch -quiet -ex run -args /bin/foo bar baz

a user would likely prefer to see nothing but the output of /bin/foo,
unless /bin/foo crashes.  Instead, gdb offers:

[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
... output here ...
Program exited normally.

It would be nice if -quiet meant suppression of that boilerplate.
