I'm getting

Python Exception <type 'exceptions.TypeError'> instance has no next()
method:

whenever I try to print out a backtrace with gdb. Anyone else noticing
this? Any idea which component is reponsible? Downgrading gdb and python
did not help.

Do you have broken gdb-python backtrace hooks in your ~/.gdbinit or
something like that?

Something changed in gdb's python suppport and broke the gobject python
snipplets that are installed by glib2-devel. I lack the python skills to
fix that, and could find much information about what changed in gdb when
I looked into it this weekend.

If somebody who speaks python could look into it, that would be
fantastic.

Does the patch below work? gdb's git commits are difficult to make sense of but I found a clue in the comment at the bottom of the class that the snipplet subclasses:


https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blob;f=gdb/python/lib/gdb/FrameIterator.py;h=c99a91e556c;hb=HEAD

(Summary: next() and __next__() are required to appease both python 2 and python 3)

I switched the names around to match the calling convention in that file but it can probably be done the other way too, with next() calling __next__(), which might be cleaner.

Cheers,
Andy
