Since switching to Debian 10 I have massive problems debugging KStars. KStars crashes frequently when running in debug mode.

My setup: Debian 10 with Parallels 15 running on a MacBook Pro, gdb version 8.2.1

Does anybody experience the same problem?

I suppose you cleaned up your build folder and your ccache. What sort of backtraces you get? Weird, unexpected crashes in templated code, or do you observe a pattern in locations?

I always get "Real time event 32", i.e. starting of new threads halts in futex_wait...

Since it is an entirely new VM, where I installed Debian 10 from scratch, there cannot be anything leftover.

If in this situation, you can still continue the program, try with the gdb command "handle SIG32 no stop" before executing the debugged code. That will tell gdb to ignore the management of this event.

Eric, many thanks. Right, that helped. I added it as additional command during startup.

That's great, now I can really work under Debian 10.
