This way you would get the exact place where it crashes. For more precise output (i.e. line numbers in the source code), you might have to adapt the PKGBUILD as described in [1]. Since the library and application are from the AUR, you won't need ABS to get the PKGBUILD. [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Step_By_Step_Debugging_Guide#Improved_gdb_output
