Use the following script under cygwin or Linux, *BSD.
#!/bin/sh GDB_VER=5.3 TARGET=avr-unknown-elf PREFIX=/usr/local
tar jxvf gdb-$GDB_VER.tar.bz2 mkdir gdb
cd gdb ../gdb-$GDB_VER/configure --target=$TARGET --prefix=$PREFIX make all make install cd ..

Note that you can build insight just by replacing all instances of "gdb" by "insight" in the script above.

Hello,
I am trying to cross-compile the latest gdb(5.3) for the arm, but I am stuck. Before I put any further effort into this issue my question:
Is there a pre-build version of the latest gdb(5.3) for the arm platform existing somewhere in the Web? :)
Thanks.
(await further postings ;)
This creates for AVR, not ARM.
Try arm-elf instead of avr-unknown-elf.
The problem I had with ARM remote GDB is that it assumes hardware breakpoints. A source level patch is needed to change to software breakpoints.

No, AFAIK.
I made one for an earlier version of GDB. If he feels he can use it, I can email it.

Really? That's odd, I found the exact opposite when configuring GDB
5.3 with --target=arm-elf. I had to make changes to config/arm/tm-embed.h to get GDB to believe that "target remote" targets support hardware breakpoints and allow the hbreak command to be used.- Fred
If that's true, good.
I'll check it - maybe somebody has heard my pleas.
Thank you for pointing out.
