Hi,

2017-10-10 21:49 GMT+02:00 Richard Hinerfeld <rhinerfeldnyc at gmail.com>:

testgdb skipped -- gdb not built with embedded python support (...) Please note I have downloaded a new version of GDB and compiled it with the config option --with-python. I then installed it on my system.

Python looks for "gdb" program in the PATH. Did you include the path where you installed the more recent and complete gdb in the PATH environment variable?

Short extract of test_gdb.py:

    proc = subprocess.Popen(["gdb", "-nx", "--version"], ...)

Victor
