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.
