GDB Compilation issue on FreeBSD

GDB Compilation issue on FreeBSD

[Arun Paneri]

Hi All, 

Pls bear with me if it is a very basic question. 
I am struggling with compilation of GDB to debug GDB with GDB itself. 
I can compile gdb using "make" command at "/gnu/usr.bin/gdb" but it gives following error when i give "make CFLAGS=-g" command. 

/.amd_mnt/lab-home1/exports/home/apaneri/src/apaneri_zr_view/src/gnu/usr.bin/gdb/libgdb/../../../../contrib/gdb/gdb/defs.h:27:52: config.h: No such file or directory

Pls help me to solve this.

Run configure in the top level directory of the GDB source, not in a
subdirectory.
