[gdb will also search debug-file-directory, but it first looks in the same directory as the binary] But if the binary is actually a symlink to a file in a different directory than the dwp file, then things break. Fission ref: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/DebugFission Repro: 1) build binary + binary.dwp 2) mkdir foo 3) ln -s ../binary foo/binary 4) mv binary.dwp foo 5) gdb foo/binary --> gdb can't find binary.dwp -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
