- Yes, Hans Verkuil just recently completed an amiga port that works
- quite well.

- It's still unreleased, partly since it requires ixemul 43.0 which is
- also still in beta test. The ixemul 43.0 release should happen in
- about a week, at which point I will put a copy of gdb up for ftp on
- ftp.ninemoons.com.

- I don't think there is any requirement to have an MMU. You will
- probably want a good amount of memory though. The specific amount
- depends upon the size of the gdb executable and the amount of debug
- information compiled into the executable you wish to debug. I'll
- try to come up with some more concrete examples.

- >How up to date is it?

- Very up to date. In fact, it is very close to the 4.16 release, which
- I'm currently working on for Cygnus and which should be available
- within a couple weeks. It will be updated within days to the 4.16
- release as soon as 4.16 is available.
