Hi,

after upgrading my N9 to PR 1.2 I cannot install Debugging module in the developer mode screen. When trying to install it a dialog is displayed stating that "devtools-debug" is to be installed and also
additional packages "maemo-debug-scripts" and "gdb". After pressing Ok button, after a while I get this error: "Can't install. Unable to trace installation package dependencies". Can someone help me please?

Thanks.

This is I think because the repository is not updated for the new kernel.
try from shell as root apt-get install gdb will finish. However maemo-debug-scripts will fail because the libc6 is not current.

I've installed the debugger via apt-get as suggested and it seems that I'm able to debug using Qt Creator but I'm not sure if all the functionality is there, I mean surely those scripts in the "maemo-debug-scripts" package have some purpose there

Yes, a somewhat working work-around (a bit of work though) look here also http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...28#post1171528
