            <thetext>+30 days in the tree, no bugs, no regressions, please do.

vapier says it&apos;s okay. Expect test failures, not a regression, though.</thetext>

&gt; amd64 stable
&gt; 

No it it&apos;s not. I&apos;ve been using gdb-6.7.1 on my stable gentoo amd64 as well as on Debian lenny (gcc-4.2, gdb-6.7.1) and I noticed that gdb is crashing randomly during debugging session under kdevelop (3.5.0). Problem is solved when downgraded to 6.6 on gentoo or downgraded to 6.4 on Debian (from Etch branch). There is also a note about it on http://kdevelop.org:

&quot;2007-December-04 - Sixth binary snapshot of the stable KDevelop 3.5.x release series
 Fixes  75 bugs from KDevelop 3.5.0 and previous versions. Again it requires GDB &gt;= 6.4 but a regression was found in GDB versions 6.7.0 and 6.7.1, avoid them. It will be fixed in version 6.7.2&quot;

I would advise to mask versions &gt;=6.7 in portage and fallback to 6.6.</thetext>

            <thetext>doubtful ... feel free to post links about the bugs and i can roll a 6.7.1-r2, otherwise we&apos;ll just wait for 6.7.2</thetext>

            <thetext>It looks something related to:
http://bugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=443080

thought it&apos;s about version 6.6 (version 6.4.90 is currently marked as stable in Debian) and it may not be the case here

http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2007-12/msg00107.html
looks like my issue, because it affects communication with graphic frontends (I observed my problem on both amd64 machines: my Gentoo with gcc-4.1,gdb-6.7.x and Debian testing with gcc-4.2,gdb-6.7.x - in both cases using kdevelop-3.5.0)

I&apos;ll upgrade to 6.7.1 and try to provide some scenario to reproduce</thetext>
