In the past, I frequently used the possibility to attach gdb to a running Python process and use the py-* extensions for debugging. However, since Debian Jessie, this does not work anymore and throws a MemoryError instead.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a Vagrant machine with
debian/jessie64box - In the box
sudo apt-get install gdb python-dbg - Create a test file
echo "raw_input()" > test.py"and runpython test.py - Attach with gdb
gdb -p <processe's PID> - Try
py-btor any otherpy-*command
Result is:
(gdb) py-bt
Python Exception <class 'gdb.MemoryError'> Cannot access memory at address 0x12:
Error occurred in Python command: Cannot access memory at address 0x12
... when using debian/wheezy64 as base box:
#10 Frame 0xf2faf0, for file test.py, line 1, in <module> ()
raw_input()
Anyone encountered and solved this issue?
