You might want to read the GDB manual where it describes how to automate 
those mundane tasks.  Put the commands you need on a .gdbinit file in the 
directory where you debug, and you will not need to type them more than 
once.

You have Emacs: it has a built-in support for debuggers, including GDB: 
just type "M-x gdb RET".

This is a header file from the GNU gettext distribution.  You need to 
download and install gettext, and then you'll have that header.

That's not really a solution: you should instead correct the problem which 
triggers the error message.
