Hi,

I try to debug setup.exe but gdb crashes when I "start" the program

* I get source of setup from CVS (sources.redhat.com:/cvs/cygwin-apps) 
and I build it with
    ./doconfigure && make && make install

* I try to start a debugging session :

$ gdb ./setup.exe

This GDB was configured as "i686-pc-cygwin"...
(gdb) start
/netrel/src/gdb-6.8-2/gdb/breakpoint.c:5082: internal-error: 
expand_line_sal_maybe: Assertion `found' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n) y

As I understand, setup.exe is a "mingw" application
my gdb is the "cygwin gdb"
"cygwin gdb" can debug "mingw app" ? (I suppose that is right)

any suggestions ?
