Re: gdb 7.8 consistently fails to run executable - error is


Hi,
I am running into the same issue.
My path is stripped down as far as possible:
$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin

But still no cigar.

$ gdb
/local/night/fizz_build_Win7_with_icons/libraries/compilelib/unittest/exec/cygwin64/MINGW/normal_mt_so/unittest.exe

dll path too long

strace revealend nothing.

Unfortunately MinGW's gdb doesn't work for other reasons, so I am back
to printf :-(

Regards

Dominik
