Hallo Group Members.
I just compiled and installed gdb 7.2 on my Redhat 5.x system just to
get python support.
I need to debug a core that was produced by (multithreaded) executable
compiled and run on this system.
Unfortunatelly on gdb 7.2 I get following error:
(gdb) core core.5595
"/var/tmp/core.5595" is not a core dump: File format not recognized
when I load the core into gdb.6.5 its format is recognized and
everything works fine.
Is it expected behavour, did I misconfigured something or is it a bug?
best regards,
Pawel
