Hi, Have you started the debugging? You have to start the application in the debugger one time before you can start setting breakpoints. This is because starting the application/debugging loads the application into GDB. Before that GDB is not even started. Setting of breakpoints before GDB is started is a bit of a problem. One could start GDB and load the application when one tries to set a break-point, but somebody would have to implement it... Please reply if my analysis/guess of the situation is right or wrong.

I suppose your guess is right, yes. I didn't started the debugging yet. In fact, i'm searching how to start GDB debugging, but i can't find it. To test if that's the only reason or if there's more.

Created attachment 120572 [details] Kate GDB Plugin With The Buttons Disabled SUMMARY GDB plugin is not working. Initially when i activated the plugin, it's true that i hadn't installed GDB, but it activated with no message at all. I installed it later, closed & relaunched Kate, but nothing happens likewise. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Kate. 2. Activate GDB plugin. 3. Try to create a breakpoint somewhere at the code, impossible. 4. The plugin's buttons are disabled and they won't enable no matter what.
