forgive my ignorance what do you mean by host and target?
Charles
When you are configuring GDB, you have the ability to specify a host
and a target. The host is the machine on which gdb will be run; the
target it the machine for which gdb will debug programs.
Since you asked what they are, I would guess that you specified
neither; in which case they default to the machine on which the
configure is being run (the build machine). So, then assuming you are
trying to configure, build, and use GDB in a native environment, the
question becomes -- what system are you trying this on?
Put another way, in your build tree, what does the top level
config.status file give as the value of --host?
