Can we lose that last half-sentence? Emacs did segfault, it's just that the segfault was expected, so this will only cause confusion. > +If you use GDB, it's recommended to use the .gdbinit file in the src/ > +subdirectory, which configures GDB not to stop in this situation. > +Starting GDB from the src directory will cause it automatically load and > +read the file, subject to the "auto-load safe-path" setting; > +alternatively, you can force GDB to read that file manually, after > +starting the debugger: > + > + (gdb) source /path/to/emacs-igc/src/.gdbinit Can we shorten this to just > +If you use GDB, it's recommended to use the .gdbinit file in the src/ > +subdirectory: > + > + (gdb) source /path/to/emacs-igc/src/.gdbinit ? I think those few people who use gdb distributions which allow auto-loading .gdbinit files will know they can skip this step (and if they don't, no harm done). The text you pushed makes it sound like we're advising people to change the auto-load safe-path setting to include the current directory, and we definitely don't want to do that. (I intentionally omitted the "If you use GDB" part: we don't want people to use lldb on GNU/Linux systems, which will result in less useful bug reports) Pip
