Re: cwrapper g++ -v erroring out (Re: Help with attempt to update devel/gdb (currently in wip/gdb))



Ping.

What would be a way forward to fix up devel/gdb properly?

Right now, I have hacks that make the generation of various libtools in
the build tree work. But pkgsrc would like it all to use its libtool
instead.

How to proceed to something that aligns nicely with pkgsrc? Hack
libtool generation templates in gdb sources? Just give in and un-break
them by making cwrappers not error out on `gcc -v` (my hack)?

Right now, current gdb and pkgsrc are incompatible. That's not
sustainable. A debugger is kindof useful in a Unix system …


Alrighty then,

Thomas
