--- Comment #1 from Simon Marchi <simark at simark dot ca> ---
Technically, I don't think there would be a problem in migrating to Babeltrace
2.  But as much as I'd like to see Babeltrace 2 getting used (I contribute to
it and it's a project essentially driven by my company), we should consider
just removing the CTF (Common Trace Format, no Compact C Type Format) support
in GDB.  GDB tracepoints are already not so widely used, and saving trace data
in CTF is a niche use case within that.

I'll ask on the gdb@ mailing list, see if anyone still cares today.

If you read this and you do care, please say so, so we know it's worth keeping
the feature.
