Toolchains in *.debs from the 2012.12.x version > seems to have support. 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.
