Hello,
I would like to debug specific software occasionally which uses also
background processes (on my openSUSE Tumbleweed system).
* Can the tool "gdb 7.9-3.1" be configured to start detailed debugging
if another background process will be started?
* How can a corresponding backtrace be collected and analysed if a subprocess
might have failed by a segmentation fault for example?
Regards,
Markus
