[kde-freebsd] KDevelop 3.4.0 debugging doesn't work with system gdb

Hi,

After an upgrade to kdevelop-3.4.0, I noticed that debugging didn't work; I
can start programs in debugging mode, but when hitting a breakpoint, there's
no way to resume the program, and variables and stack list are not visible.

After I checked the kdevelop forums, it looks like gdb 6.6 is needed for
KDevelop 3.4.0's debugger frontend to work. And sure enough, after compiling
gdb 6.6 from source, I have a working KDevelop again.

So, just a headsup: the port of kdevelop is broken, in the sense that
debugging with it doesn't work, unless you compile and install gdb 6.6 from
source.

Best regards,

Arjan
