Re: Where are the sources for insight 6.8?

The insight-6.8.tar.bz2 tarball at

distributing the sources from the insight 6.8 tarball along with an
insight binary that uses any cgen-generated code does not fulfill
the requirements of the GPL.

I've never noticed that before! I use gdb's release method when doing the release, though, so I wonder if that directory is being excluded from gdb or if there is some sort of a bug w.r.t. to handling insight in the release process makefiles.


I've looked in the sourceware cvs repository, and even for core
gdb files that are included in the insight 6.8 release, the latest
insight tag is insight_6_6-20070208-release; I couldn't find
any tag for the insight 6.7.1 nor the insight 6.8 release.

It looks like I never tagged the sources. Fortunately, the branch is still around... [I use the gdb release branches.]
