>Description:
When gdb is used with executables that use shared libraries
not containing any debugging symbols, it prints out a long
string of 'no debugging symbols found' messages, all
concatenated into a single long line. It would be much nicer
if they were split and formatted into individual lines. And
it would be really helpful if each one would tell what library
does not contain any debugging symbols.
