Hi,
When bt shows history inside of a file without debugging
symbols, how do i find what file it is?

It looks like your GDB has failed to load libraries. Try "info shared".

(gdb) info shared No shared libraries loaded at this time.

Then, your GDB is broken. Do you get warnings about not being able to find the dynamic linker? How are you starting the program to be debugged? If you're remote debugging, did you use "file"?

You need to give more details before we can help you.

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?
