gdb (16.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium The gdb-multiarch binary package has been reintroduced. In order to try to minimize the final installed size of the package, and acknowledging that most users are likely not going to need a multiarch-capable GDB installed, the gdb-multiarch package has been reintroduced. -- Sergio Durigan Junior Mon, 17 Feb 2025 00:19:12 -0500 gdb (16.0.90.20250111-1~exp2) experimental; urgency=medium The gdb-minimal and gdb-multiarch binary packages have been removed. gdb-minimal contained a stripped-down version of GDB in order to be installed on systems where there was no need for a fully fledged debugger. One of its main benefits was supposed to be its smaller size. In the end, the storage space saved by gdb-minimal was only 1 megabyte, while it increased the maintenance burden (and package build time). For that reason, the package was dropped and the regular gdb package now replaces it. gdb-multiarch shipped a GDB build that supported multiple target architectures. Again, this was a maintenance burden and GDB's build system should be reliable enough so that we can safely enable the supported for *all* target architectures without issues. This is what is now done, and the regular gdb package now ships with support for all supported architectures. -- Sergio Durigan Junior Sun, 19 Jan 2025 01:08:05 -0500 gdb (8.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium gdb-python2 package has been removed, starting with GDB 8.2. -- Héctor Orón Martínez Fri, 23 Nov 2018 22:56:43 +0100 gdb (7.8-1) experimental; urgency=medium WARNING: gdb now uses Python 3 by default. Please update your Python scripts to work on both Python 2 and 3 as soon as possible. See /usr/share/doc/gdb*/README.python_switch for details. -- Samuel Bronson Tue, 26 Aug 2014 14:04:20 -0400 gdb (7.4really-1) unstable; urgency=low gdbtui binary is deprecated, starting with GDB 7.5. Use "gdb -tui" instead. -- Hector Oron Sat, 28 Jan 2012 00:43:37 +0100
