Error message "Interpreter 'console' unrecognized" with gdb 6.8 pcsolaris

Error message "Interpreter 'console' unrecognized" with gdb 6.8 pcsolaris

[Andrew]

Hi

I've compiled a 32 bit gdb 6.8 with 32-bit gcc 3.4.3 on 
an amd64 Solaris 2.10. When I invoke the binary it shows: 

Interpreter 'console' unrecognized.

I haven't been able to find any information on this. 
Any clues on what might be wrong?

Thanks
Andrew

Just a shot in the dark: Could it be a termcap thing? Have you tried
setting the TERM variable to different settings?

Thanks for the help, but unfortunately, no, the message still appears (it was vt100, I tried xterm, vt220).

I found out the problem. I had the "--disable-tui" option when configuring gdb. Removing it solved the problem.

I'm just not sure why tui is required in this case, maybe something else is at play here. In the course of my probing what is wrong I generated binaries using a cross compiler (gcc 4.1.2) with the same --disable-tui option and that one worked.
