there is an unofficial gdb debian package at
ftp://ftp.parisc-linux.org/unofficial-debs/gdb_5.2.cvs20020401-4.1_hppa.deb
this is basically the same as the Debian package, except it has a fix
for the '"core" is not a core dump: File format not recognized' bug.
A patch has been submitted to the Debian maintainer, but in the meantime
if you want you can use this package.
I see that Dave has changed hppa-gcc from using stabs to using dwarf2 in
gcc 3.2, so things might be quite different once we move to gcc 3.2...
but for now gdb is only marginally usable. If anyone is interested in
looking at gdb, we seem to have some problems with gdb tracking line
info. 'next' doesn't work at all...
