Description Mikhail Zabaluev 2003-08-16 12:51:52 MSD 
When debugging jabberd, a daemon that setuids to user jabber, a peculiar situation was created. I stop the debugged jabberd with its init script. gdb detects SIGTERM, then SIGPIPE to the jabberd process. Then, when I try to quit, the following dialog occurs:

(gdb) quit
The program is running.  Quit anyway (and detach it)? (y or n) y
Detaching from program: /usr/sbin/jabberd, process 26851
ptrace: No such process.

Only killing gdb would help after this.

Should be fixed in new gdb, please reopen if not.
