You should not have to do anything.  Don't mention the shared library
explicitly to GDB - it doesn't need that.  Just load the real
application that you want to debug and run it.  You should be able to
set a breakpoint in the shared library.

If you are using an old version of GDB, upgrade to the latest release.
