I installed the 2020-06 of eclipse for C and C++ and crated a new project with it. the project can be built but when I want to debug it I encounter with this message:
Could not determine GDB version using command: gdb --version
Failed to import the site module
Error processing line 1 of /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/ruamel.yaml-0.16.10-py3.8-nspkg.pth:

It seems that eclipse cannot find the gdb. I am sure that I have gdb installed i my ubuntu PC. but when I type gdb in command prompt I see the same error.
can anybody please help me on this?
Thanks

It seems to me that your Ubuntu installation does not have the program development tools.

Please go to the package manager and install build-essential package.

You can do it from the console:
sudo apt install build-essential

Hi
Thanks for your reply
when I wanted to install build-essential it told me that I have had it:
build-essential is already the newest version (12.4ubuntu1).
