I've compiled it on a Fedora 20 32-bit and it worked perfectly. Thank you.


So, I forgot to tell you before. I can't compile it on a Fedora 20
64-bit. I tried with CFLAGS=-m32 but have no success too.
All Tcl/Tk/Tcl-devel/Tk-devel packgages are installed for x86_64 and .i686.

The errors for 64-bits are bellow.

Despite all problems I think Insight is the best GUI to GDB, yet. Mainly
for cross compiling use. Simple and efficient.

Again, thank you for your effort in not let it die. :-)
