I tried to run my test application (a console program based on TCustomApplication) from the Lazarus window today in order to gather info for asking about the problems I have had.
Lazarus 1.5 is running on a Raspberry Pi2 under Raspbian Jessie.

What happens when I hit the Run button is the following: Error dialog pops up with title "Debugger Error" and content:

"Debugger Error
Ooops, the debugger entered the error state.
Save your work now!
Hit Stop and hope the best, we're pulling the plug."

This application ran yesterday but it threw a SIGSEG error at the end and I wanted today to trace that down, but now the application will not even start.

In the meantime I have added a new unit to the project but before starting this test I had removed it from the project and made a clean build too. The build succeeds but the program fails to run.

What could cause the error above? Where should I start looking? I tried googling this error but it is too general to yield any good result pages...

It seems like I found the problem cause...
I did not in fact run the application yesterday, it was two days ago (Saturday) and Lazarus had been sitting there over the weekend. An this weekend Daylight Savings Time was cancelled here so the times have changed one hour while Lazarus was running. Might have screwed up something with the GDB interface because when I closed Lazarus and started it again all is well, no such message.
