gdb-apple Error

[James Furness]

Hi,

I have just installed gdb-apple using macports in the hope that it might help with some Fortran debugging blues (details here if anyone would like to try and help:  http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/1203083/#msg_1203083)

So as an experiment I thought I would try to use gdb-apple instead of the ‘vanilla’ gdb (again downloaded from macports). However when I try to run gdb-apple from the terminal, it will run fine without a program to debug, however when I give it a program it returns a massive list of missing library errors referring to a non-existent directory.

The errors are all like:
warning: Could not find object file "/Users/fx/devel/gcc/ibin-462-x86_64/x86_64-apple-darwin11/libquadmath/strtod/.libs/tens_in_limb.o" - no debug information available for "../../../gcc-4.6.2-RC-20111019/libquadmath/strtod/tens_in_limb.c”.

I guess I am missing ‘libquadmath’ though it seems this should come with gcc.

Any help is greatly appreciated,
