Hello

I know this gdb release is pretty archaic now, although its current Ubuntu LTS  gdb 15.0.


In a more recent gdb, does the "Download failed" provide some more info about the invalid argument in a more recent version? interesting to know more about what causes it.


I see in a little test C file like this:
$ gdb ./crash2 

(gdb) set verbose on
(gdb) run


Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
Download failed: Invalid argument.  Continuing without source file ./string/../sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcpy-sse2-unaligned.S.


Please include my email address in any replies.

Thanks
Jonathan
