Subject: Debugging 32/64 bit binaries on os/x 10.7 with cvs gdb?
Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2011 20:33:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <DCB78A22-26C6-4513-97B6-26EAE2A656DE@astro.princeton.edu> (raw)
If I build gdb from source on os/x 10.7 and attempt to debug python (a 32/64 bit binary), gdb says;

Is there a way to build gdb to work around this?
