- Subject: Single stepping and "no line information"
I'm debugging an application which use a shared lib.
That library has been compiled on my system, and I added to the CFLAGS
used the -ggdb -O0 flags, so I'm quite sure that lib should contain
the source line symbol informations.
Nonetheless when I try to step into the library functions I get:
(gdb) s
Single stepping until exit from function su_clone_start,
which has no line number information.

Why gdb can't find the source line informations?
How can I verify (e.g. with a commandline tool) wether that
information is present directly analyzing the library files?
TIA.
Best regards.
