From FEDORA_PATCHES Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bruno Larsen Date: Wed, 22 Sep 2021 12:22:44 -0300 Subject: gdb-rhbz1916516-pathstuffs132-internal-error.patch ;;[gdb/cli] Don't assert on empty string for core-file ;;(Tom de Vries) With current gdb we run into: ... $ gdb -batch '' '' : No such file or directory. pathstuff.cc:132: internal-error: \ gdb::unique_xmalloc_ptr gdb_abspath(const char*): \ Assertion `path != NULL && path[0] != '\0'' failed. ... Fix this by skipping the call to gdb_abspath in core_target_open in the empty-string case, such that we have instead: ... $ gdb -batch '' '' : No such file or directory. : No such file or directory. $ ...
