I'm trying to use gdbserver to debug a userland application.  When I add the "Miscellaneous

Application 'gdbserver' and run make I get the following error,

My target is a BF548-EZKIT derivative.  What does this error mean.  If I use gdbserver(old) the make

succeeds.

Also,

The kernel configuration option

for the "Miscellaneous Application" says I must ENABLE PTHREADS_DEBUG_SUPPORT in uClibc config.

How/Where do I enable this option?

Thanks,

Marshall Seaborn

you picked the wrong one.  enable the one that's enabled in the default config -- the one labeled "old".
