It is no scam. You are free to get the sources and build everything
yourself. I'm sure there will be a statement somewhere on the cygnus
web site letting you know this.
When I build Insight from the sources I use "gdb" to start insight. I'm
not sure if it is renamed with GNUPro ? Make sure it picks up the
correct gdb and not the original one you had. Use <path/gdb> if
necessary. I generally put a symbolic link in /usr/local/bin to point
to the correct gdb. You can rename it if you like.
