Trying to attach to a running process (New empty GUI template project of QtCreator) using the dialog of GammaRay (GammaRay is running with sudo as root). The process is found, here is the gammaray output when stopping: Remarks:

You don't need to run GammaRay as root, it should be fine to attach to a user-space process via the gdb method.

If at all, within KDE, you need to run 'kdesudo gammaray'. sudo won't work for GUI applications.

If you experience issues with attaching to other processes on your system please try to disable this first: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/Roadmap/KernelHardening#ptrace_Protection

Oh. What a coincidence, this is EXACTLY what the ouput of gammaray is trying to tell me. Another unnecessary bug of a guy who can't read the error message twice ;-) Works perfectly after enabling ptrace, "bug" closed.

No problem.
