I installed things manually so much that you can't talk about a version anymore. You'll have to ask for specific versions of tools/libraries that are significant. The last time I did a full sync was with RH7.2, but I have installed many many many things from rawhide, and the most important things like glibc, kernel, compilers and libraries are not related to any release (they are newer). > > Let me know if there are any problems. > None so far.. Good. I just released version 0.99.20, but you'll get updated automatically when I post the next 'tag' anyway, so I guess that is not relevant ;). The first thing I will do now is patch my kernel so it will dump cores that are as useful as possible, and then I'll start to use the latest CVS version of gdb and see what happens. Please get back to me asap if you don't want me to patch my kernel because that wouldn't be representative enough or because you can't patch your kernel likewise (something that I suppose is needed in order to mirror what I do here), or when you want me to use the released gdb 5.2 rather than the current cvs version. -- Carlo Wood PS My software efforts aim at developers that are willing to live on the bleeding edge. Although I didn't yet *demand* that everyone uses g++-3.1, I CAN demand that they patch their kernel when that is the only way to work reasonable with gdb (and obviously, my library doesn't make gdb redundant but on the contrary is relatively useless in an environment where gdb doesn't work well, because then you still can't debug, now can you!? ;).
