I tried this on similar Fedora system, which , sadly, I had already updated and thus got the borked “oxygen2” version alreadly installed.

In this case, despite selecting both the ac6 suite and the “external tools” the cross debugger is not present ! It compiles the project but fails to launch the debugging session.

It reports “unable to start debugger, reason unknown”.

UNKOWN? Like it can not even work out that the executable it is calling is not there ?

What the heck are they doing with the errors codes , just ignoring them apparently.

This is not exactly the same errors as was getting on the other ( main development ) system,but also results in the debugger failing.

Roberto, if you have experience with trouble with the toolchain update, it would be helpful if you could be more specific or provide a link to any bug reports if you have contacted the devs.

I previously used the distro’s cross compiler suite and told eclipse not install just the ac6 tools, it still dumped their toolchain on the system and now seems to have removed it without installing the update. It’s frankly a mess.

This may be time for me to quit this crippled dinosaur IDE and find another dev. system. I’ve had it with spending more time debugging other peoples tools that using them.
