Hello,

is there a reason that python support for gdb helper is disabled in the installable *.deb packages? Toolchains in *.debs from the 2012.12.x version seems to have support.

Best Regards,

Markus Niebel

Yes. I explicitly disabled this for the binary packages. The tgz has no
dependencies and the I use to generate the debs doesn't add the correct
dependencies either, so I got several bug reports that gdb failed to start
because of missing dependencies.
If you build the toolchain manually (without build_all_v2.mk), then you get
python support if python-dev (or something like that) is installed.

Fixing that is on my TODO list for the next major toolchain release.

Regards,
Michael

Good to know, thanks.
