dbgserver internal error.

Hi.

I pulled the gdb-source package and built gdbserver.

It builds fine, without any problems. It even starts perfectly:


pmsjt@ptrx2660:~/develop/gdb/gdb/gdbserver$ ./gdbserver localhost:1234 /usr/bin/bash

Process /usr/bin/bash created; pid = 20065

Listening on port 1234



But when I connect to it, it fails with an internal error:



Remote debugging from host 192.168.1.76

tdesc.c:166: A problem internal to GDBserver has been detected.

const char* tdesc_get_features_xml(const target_desc*): Assertion `tdesc->xmltarget != NULL || (!tdesc->features.empty () && tdesc->arch != NULL)' failed.

pmsjt@ptrx2660:~/develop/gdb/gdb/gdbserver$

Looks like some platform descriptive files have been deleted for ia64. I assume this is known. Is there a workaround people are currently using or are we just deprived from gdb for now?

Thanks.
