Title:
  gdb crashes when trying to start a debugging session

Status in gdb:
  New
Status in gdb package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This bug log applies to Ubuntu Mate for raspberry PI.

  I cannot use gdb to debug a program. See below. This happens on any
  program, even programs that come with ubuntu, for example try gdb
  /bin/less. It always crashes in  d-linux-armhf.so.3
