[Bug 1971474] Re: SRU: Update gdb to the final 12.1 release in 22.04 LTS

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Matthias, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gdb into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdb/12.1-0ubuntu1~22.04 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: gdb (Ubuntu Jammy)
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-jammy

Title:
  SRU: Update gdb to the final 12.1 release in 22.04 LTS

Status in gdb package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in gdb source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Update gdb to the final 12.1 release in 22.04 LTS. jammy ships with
  the gdb 12.1 release candidate, taken from the gdb-12 branch. Changes
  up to the final release are:

   - updated gnulib library
   - Fix for PR mi/29002 (Windows only)
   - gdb: fix 'remote show FOO-packet' aliases
   - various testsuite fixes
   - fixing compiler warnings
   - Fix bug in Ada number lexing
   - Remove "Ada Settings" node from the manual
   - Handle TLS variable lookups when using separate debug files.
   - PR 28980: gdb: don't copy entirely optimized out values in value_copy
   - gdb/mi: fix use after free of frame_info causing spurious notifications

  Comparing the test results between the two builds doesn't show any
  regression on any architecture.

  Also tested with a test rebuild of main, see LP: #1970233.
