I am trying to install fresh version of gdb debugger on my cygwin (version that comes with cygwin is buggy). Since I need the newest version of gdb, I need to use apt-cyg to install it.

When I run apt-cyg install gdb=7.12 I get an error message: Unable to locate package gdb=7.12. I also tried 7.12.1-1 and 7.12.1, but same problem.

Does apt-cyg support version targeting?

You won't be able to get this version until it is added to Cygwin.

The latest version integrated into Cygwin is gdb-7.11.1-2:
