Re: [arago-commits] Denys Dmytriyenko : external-arago-sdk-toolchain: package up gdb from the toolchain as well

[Denys Dmytriyenko <denys@ti.com>]

Well, gdb from the Arago toolchain does not provide python support, as that's 
how it was built back then...

The only way to get Python support built into gdb is to rebuild it from 
sources, which we discussed and agreed not to do. Moreover, if you want gdb 
built from sources, it will be of a different version - OE-Core provides 
version 7.4, while we got clearance for 7.2 and also we have target gdbserver 
of version 7.2 as well...
