debugging - Make gdb search for symbol files again -


my distribution (debian) ships debug files in separate packages. happens run program in gdb until crashes, in order obtain usable backtrace bug report. bt rather useless, missing symbol information – because did not install corresponding -dbg package.

if install package now, there way make gdb search symbol files again, without losing current backtrace?

there trick can use make gdb try read symbol files again:

(gdb) nosharedlibrary (gdb) sharedlibrary 

the first command tells forget symbol information has, , second command tells re-read it.
