Status of kdbg bug submission

Status of kdbg bug submission

[Brad Aisa]

I get an error msg "gdb exited unexpectedly" when starting kdbg. I 
have submitted a bug report to the gdb bug base, and was wondering 
when I would receive confirmation? I sumitted on Mon 10/03/05.

In brief, the context and issue:

Linux FC4 
GDB6.3
Kdbg 1.3 or 2.0 (doesn't matter which)

Load an executable, the program responds,  "GDB exited unexpectedly."

The author of KDBG has assured that the issue has been investigated, 
and lies with gdb, not kdbg.

I have a sample executable that can reproduce the issue.

Bugs are responded to, of course, when a volunteer has time.  However,
in this case, I have seen no record of your bug report; where did you
submit it?

Well, I filled out the form on the gnu site, and it seemed to post 
successfully, and told me i'd get some kind of email at some point. 
Should I try again? Do I somehow need to be logged in as some kind of 
user to send a bug report?

Which gnu site?  Was it the GNATS system on sourceware.org, or was it
somewhere else?

Or you could just send it to this list.  No, you should not need to be
logged in for GNATS.

I actually have seen the same thing at the GDB GNATS database. I created
a PR, and saw the usual message saying that the has been filed, and that
I would receive a confirmation email. But I didn't receive the email
either. I has always taken a while, but I don't remember it taking more
than a day or two.

Was this for PR 2018?  Looks like it's not been sending out new bug
mail; I will check with the sysadmins.

Thanks. Yes, this is the PR. Bizarre, I did browse the TNs looking
for mine, but perhaps I made an error or tried too early.
