[fpc-pascal] Debugger support for FP (issues with libgdb.a)

[Andrea]

Hi,

I've tried to use the debugger in FP 2.2.2 and I got this error

"No debugger support available"

The I read online and found that I need to get libgdb.a from a build of gdb and copy it in fpc.
I've done that and copied to

/fpcsrc/libgdb/linux/libgdb.a

Now I get this linker error (+ many more similar)

Have I done it correctly?
I was wondering if there is a documentation about that.
