Hi,
I'm using GNU gdb 6.4-debian on a debian-sid pc.

I debug using: ddd ./myprog

I've been using it for months ok (my program runs on the same pc).

To get rid of these backtrace unknowns, i installed the unstripped
dev and debug packages for various libraries. I assume there's still
some stripped libraries being used. If i can find the name of these
files, i can install debug versions of them.

I assume it's stripped libraries that's causing this?
