Eclipse Juno CDT Error in final launch sequence [message #1019494]

I'm using CentOS 6.4 and out of the Repository I installed an Eclipse
Helios. It works and debugs C++-code.

@work I'm used to use Juno, so I installed Eclipse Juno to a Folder and
executing it works, but there is a problem. The project builds, but
Debugger doesn't start:
<
Error in final launch sequence
Failed to execute MI command:
maintenance set python print-stack off
Error message from debugger back end:
Undefined maintenance set python command: "print-stack off". Try "help
maintenance set python".
Undefined maintenance set python command: "print-stack off". Try "help
maintenance set python".

This doesn't seem to be a problem of access, because also a "sudo
eclipse" doesn't resolve the problem.

I just installed Eclipse Juno under Windows-XP and it works at once,
also at Fedora 14, so there must be a special difference to CentOs. What
could it be?

You must have recently changed your GDB version. This problem has been reported on non-standard GDBs which have removed the command "maintenance set python" but have not followed the standard GDB versioning.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=402988

CDT will improve its solution to handle such cases better, but that will only be available in the next release (Kepler) due in June.

The only workaround is to change your GDB version to what worked before or to use the standard FSF GDB.

P.S. I don't believe Helios would work with such a version of GDB either...

I switched from Fedora to CentOS-6.4, it provides "GNU gdb (GDB) Red Hat
Enterprise Linux (7.2-60.el6)".

Ups, the report names the same gdb-version.

One of my debug configurations works, but I don't understand, how to
reproduce it:

The [Debug Configurations]->[C/C++ Application]->my_project works, when
on page [Debugger] there is a Debugger of "gdb/mi" and using "GDB
command set: Standard (Linux)", "Protocol: mi". This is a part of the
page completely different to the [Debug Configurations] that doesn't
work: There is a Debugger of "gdb" and the whole part of "command set/
protocol" is replaced by some (unchecked) checkboxes.

So there is a working workaround (it really works, I started
GUI-software after clean build), but how to set it up?

Ah yes, you can use CDT's older GDB integration. Thanks for mentioning it. That solution doesn't support any of the new features introduced by GDB, but it is still a good debugger solution.
Here how to choose it:

Nice to meet a win win situation. ;o)

Thank you, that solves my problem. I will try to switch back, when there
is an update of gdb or eclipse.
