Subject: GDB with python support: which version of Python?
Date: Thu, 30 May 2013 22:04:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1369951459.3295.229.camel@pdsdesk> (raw)
Hi all;
I'm trying to build a portable version of GDB, with Python support, that
I can use on many different (GNU/Linux) systems. It's frustrating
because Python versions are all over the place: every distro you use, it
seems like, has a different not-completely-compatible version.
Plus, I can't find any straightforward way to build GDB with Python
linked statically to avoid local .so version problems. Seems GDB
configure doesn't really support this. I'm thinking of pulling a Python
install without any .so to force static linking. Have others tried
this?
I see from the README that the "oldest version of Python supported by
GDB is 2.4". Is there a _recommended_ version of Python? 2.7? 3.x?
Something else?
Thanks!
