Description Brian Hill 2005-04-17 17:45:42 UTC

I successfully compiled cgdb using portage and package.keywords and it compiles and works fine. I was able to use it to debug programs.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Put CGDB into /etc/portage/package.keywords as ~x86
2.emerge cgdb
3.Run

Actual Results:  
It works

it emerges fine, but if i want to run it:

 $ cgdb
cgdb.c:662 Unable to invoke GDB

looks like non-functioning, please reopen with some instructions how to run it the right way (TM) if i'm wrong

I wouldn't know why it doesn't run on your system; it could be a configuration error or other problem.

All I did was emerge and run and it ran fine.

well it still doesn't run here, but according to a strace it really could be a configuration error -> ~amd64
