Today I ran into a situation where no breakpoints were working inside kdevelop, breakpoints all just said "pending" even though gdb was otherwise functioning. After some bother I managed to track this down to my use of a linux "bind mount" 1) I have a folder "/home/foobar/blah/Development" 2) I have a secondary mount of this folder "/Development" 3) Kdevelop project and all tools etc. use "/Development" everywhere 4) However I accidentally opened my kdevelop project through "/home/foobar/blah/Development" instead of "/Development" 5) When setting breakpoints kdevelop is passing the path from which the project was opened to gdb "/home/foobar/blah/Development/src/foo.cpp" instead of "/Development/src/foo.cpp" 6) This confusingly leaves gdb unable to find the file, even though both paths are valid (presumably because the paths are hard compiled into the debug information or similar) While this is how it presented in this specific case, I do wonder if other tools may have similar issues - so perhaps (ideally) kdevelop should warn if the paths inside the project file and the path from which the project are opened differ from one another.
