Hello

Can anybody tell me how i can build fpc 2.5.1 with gdb support. I have ubuntu 10.10 with gdb 7.2 binary package installed , when i tried to 'make build' i got linker errors like:

(.text+0x142): undefined reference to `_Py_NoneStruct' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_get_tag': (.text+0x148): undefined reference to `_Py_NoneStruct' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_get_sizeof': (.text+0x1ba): undefined reference to `PyLong_FromLong' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_lookup_typename': (.text+0x348): undefined reference to `PyExc_KeyboardInterrupt' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_lookup_typename': (.text+0x34f): undefined reference to `PyExc_RuntimeError' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_lookup_typename': (.text+0x359): undefined reference to `PyErr_Format' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_range': (.text+0x4c4): undefined reference to `PyLong_FromLong' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_range': (.text+0x4d6): undefined reference to `PyLong_FromLong' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_range': (.text+0x4ec): undefined reference to `PyTuple_New' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_range': (.text+0x50a): undefined reference to `PyTuple_SetItem' //usr/lib/libgdb.a(py-type.o): In function `typy_range': etc...

Seems like the gdb library is compiled with python scripting support. Either recompile without python or add python library to the linker.
