            Bug ID: 31363
           Summary: Remove support for .gdb_index
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: symtab
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: tromey at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

Now that the .debug_names writer has been rewritten,
I think we should plan to remove .gdb_index.

While .debug_names has some drawbacks (reuse of the
string table means more data to download when just
the index is desired), it is also better documented
and integrates better with the new DWARF scanner.
