Hi,
Changing the discussion to this mailing list since it seems more
appropriate.

If the library has debug information, you should be able to set a
pending breakpoint on a function in the library. It will be resolved by
GDB when it gets loaded by the binary. You don't need source code or
debug information for the main program if all you are interested in is
the library.
